Room location and view was amazing, although room was small it had everything you needed. The bathroom was a bit small and not much room to put things or hang towels, another rail would be useful and mould in bottom of shower needs to be addressed. But other than that, it was great

The rooms facing the service laneway are extremely noisy around 0300hrs with large steel rubbish bins being moved around for pickup by the trucks which come a couple of hours later. Very noisy. Room service Team on 2 occasions failed to renew complements like coffee and milk which is pretty basic.
