NOTE : Once you collect your belongings from the cloakroom, you can’t put them back, or you will have to pay again for the service.
The reason behind this decision is that we want to discourage people from coming and going to the cloakroom all night long to get some stuff in their bags or jackets as we only have a small team dedicated to this task, and so that it doesn’t clutter up the service.
We hope you understand. 🙂
