Really helpful/friendly staff and easy venue to use. Made to feel welcome which was appreciated.
Toilets. They are a bit dingy. And they were not properly gender neutral, just a note on the door. A urinal is not gender neutral. only this that stopped the final star! Food was a bit kids party food but it was there on time and was enough for the students.
