The king bed was old and you could feel the springs sticking in your back. The air con was on and had no controller. The TV was almost analog. The hold fee still hasnt been released 24 hours after I checked out.

Great room, very comfy bed and the service/ staff were excellent. Where you need to improve is the shower "rooms" because the water went everywhere in the absence of a curtain or screen. The continental breakfast is also very poor value for money. Tepid water (not hot) to make an instant coffee and the milk had clearly been sitting out for a long time that it had started to curdle.

Room was clean. Did have a very strong smell of alcohol. Hotel itself is quiet mostly, however the road noise goes all night long. I think hotels should not be allowed to charge double price due to long weekend for the exact same bed & sheets. For $400 a night surely a croissant could be thrown in. Plus you pay an extra $20 for parking

The property looked fine. The parking is appalling. The parking spaces are small and often do not have sufficient manoeuvring room. I have a small car yet was worried that I would scratch my car on poles or others would scratch my car as they were trying to get in or out of parking spaces.

Although the pictures were appealing the level of noise made for a unpleasant stay. The bathroom was very small and the shower that did not have a shelf had the worst water pressure. The car park is extremely tight and hazardous. Convenient location
