The rooms are small and the bathroom is made up of a cubicle for the toilet and a cubicle for the shower which are in the bedroom. No door to the bathroom. You can't separate the lights for the WC only. Not well thought out. Bed was comfortable but small. 4'6" Staff were all nice

Room with the subterranean view

It was a late booking and we were offered a special needs room (bigger, and a hospital type bathroom without a separation between toilet and shower) or a room without a window (is that legal?). The room was below ground level of hotel entrance, beside the wheelchair ramp. If you tried hard, you could almost see the sky! A big noisy in the am. We were asked to pay right at book-in. Unusual. We were told since we booked the cheapest room ($400 CDN/night!) we didn't have much choice. It was the only room available at Hotels.com by the way. A few other things were a bit different but manageable.

Very good

Warm welcome on arrival with a busy reception area. Given all the information we required and offered a reduced price on breakfast which we took advantage of. Free tea and coffee on offer beside reception/bar which was a nice touch. Room was perfect for our needs and contained everything you might require such as hairdryer, iron and ironing board, shampoo, conditioner and body wash. The bed was super comfy and the bed linen was crisp, clean and fresh. Towels were super fluffy and the room and hotel in general was very clean. We enjoyed our breakfast with the usual offerings just be aware the room is not very big so you may have to wait for a table . A great stay and will def use again .

Los jóvenes de recepción con pésima actitud: flojera, mala cara, no me dieron ningún beneficio, solo me recordaron que tenía incluido el desayuno pero por la hora no lo pude tomar. En la habitación se escucha ruidos de regaderas, baño, pasos, movimiento de maletas, portazos, et.
