Great stay apart from parents not controlling their kids in the corridor making heaps of noise when coming back late in the evening. Don’t blame the kids, but blame the parents not teaching their children correctly.

Loved having access to Hale Gym as a guest of the hotel. Room itself is very dated but was comfortable and clean. No room service or onsite kitchen is pretty odd for any hotel today.

We booked for 3 adults in one room with 2 twin bed. (Extra charges for an adult). However, when we checked in at night time. We found out that room was only with King bed. Tried to ask for help from counter staff and she replied there was no housekeeping this time. Ended up I had to take another room with $186. Most importantly, the receptionist told us they didn’t receive the request for 2 twin beds via “Expedia.com”. I asked for refund for extra adult but unable to do so because it was booked via Expedia. I hope HOTEL.COM can look into the matter . Regards, Ken

The hotel is in a quiet residential area. Lovely garden. Beds are very comfortable and linen clean and fresh. Good sized room. The bar fridge was noisy so I turned it off. Staff were friendly and helpful. Very professional.
