Working in teams of three, there was a lot of time for our project and to ask questions. The days were long, but worthwhile.
The staff are very helpful on the front desk and I feel they do an excellent job, running all the various exams and making sure we are happy during our stay.
The Reception and food was excellent at the Hotel, which was only a two minute work away, allowing plenty of time for study.
I would recommend this training company over all others"
