Liked cleanliness, modern bathroom, cold fridge. Didn’t like parking so far away from hotel and so many stairs, and bad smell in room, like an earthy odour (cigarettes)?

Upon arrival i was asked for a $200 deposit, without any prior communication regarding this fee. Thankfully, after a long deliberation it was waved as I had no use for the mini bar. For four months I had been looking forward to relaxing in a bath, unfortunately, we arrived to find that the bathrooms had recently been renovated and my room no longer contained a bath. Only a shower with a half screen, so the bathroom floor floods with each shower. They don't have daily servicing and with only two towel hooks for four towels, we were trying to dry ourselves with wet towels. Our rubbish piled up and we couldn't find a rubbish shoot or spare bags to use. The beds are so soft that back pain was inevitable. And the TV screen had a blurry picture and strange colouring. The 'city view' was like overlooking slums. Special mention to the car park with open rubbish bags lying in it. The staff were lovely, the rooms were clean. The pool was freezing, but nice. I wouldn't stay there again.

Room was comfortable and fine for a one night stay. Hotel was clean and parking was convenient. We needed to dial in to work calls UK time in the evening, however, we were told there'd be no WiFi during our stay due to an outage. Unfortunately we were given no alternative or suggestions of where to go so had to take calls on a park bench with the street WiFi at 9pm! Staff member remarked that because we had booked through a third party there was less they could do to help.
