The venue was great and the it was a fantastic event.
It was really nice having our own space to enjoy the evening and the staff were very polite and pleasant to deal with.
Not a dislike, but as this was an after party event, some of the guests headed home slightly before all of the food had been brought out. Other than that there were no dislikes.
