The venue was really really glam and special. Staff helpful and really nice.
There was no air conditioning in the room at all. It was so hot and sweaty. Not a nice venue to host a summer event in the Library.

Everything. Even when we had a technical difficulty, a member of staff let us use their laptop so we had no disruption to our meeting. Great service, and we are making this our default event space now.
Need an adaptor for the screen that works with a Microsoft Surface Pro laptop.
