My stay was extremely pleasant. The location was great and the ambiance throughout was so comforting. Check in after hours was of ease as the instructions were clear. I had a great 3-night stay. Super clean and the coffee station in the front lobby was very nice.

Beautiful stay! Will stay again! Needs to be more known about parking though! We did stay here with the convenience of the $30-day parking however once arrived we found out parking location is only 2m high due to my partners work Ute we exceed 21.5m we had to park 3km away to insure we didn’t risk parking fines! Please advise this for others in advance.
