I specifically asked for a room without a connecting door, the lady on the phone was very accommodating promising me that she would put a note on my reservation that I wouldn't have a connecting door but when I checked in that request was ignored. I didn't even stay one night in your hotel.

Staff were friendly and helpful. Tea and coffee facilities could be better ie sugar in room for easy access. A lounge area other than the foyer might be a great idea for people to socialise in.

The apartment hotel is new and the room facilities is good. The emnities can use some improvement but good in terms of a service apartment. The location is excellent for what it is. Most of the interaction we had with staff are postive and friendly. However the communication especially around room service/cleaning could be clearer and some of the request we had didn't go through. There was a instance with an unpleasant encounter with staff with requesting new towel. Overal the experince is postive.
