Facilities were all modern and clean, the carpets were very aged and stained, almost need replacing but overall was still clean. The drive into the carparking area was cluttered with bins and there was a door to an outside storage area tgat was unlatched and swinging into the drive. I had to get out and close it as it could have scraped my vehicle driving in. A very tight carpark but great that the vehicle was off the street.

Little Hidden Gem ?

Looks can be deceiving.Images looked great, reality was different. Difficult to find the hotel entrance, drove up the “service lane” behind a row of Asian take aways with dustbins for company, thought I was teleported to Vietnam. That happens to be the entrance to the parking garage. Finally got to reception, complete with stained carpets. First impressions …… run, before the bed bugs mug you. Prepared for a bad experience, was too late to cancel so what else could I do. Opening the room door was a huge relief, a well set out room with all the necessities, biggest surprise was the modern en suite. Great shower and comfy bed are my non-negotiable, these were fantastic. Didn’t try the adjoining bar for food. Gotta work on the welcome as first impressions ….

Not a great place to stay

Booked three King rooms. Two parties had spacious rooms and king beds. Ours was not spacious, nor a king bed. We spoke to Reception and were told that all rooms had king beds. We told him ours did not, and it clearly was not a king bed. The only other option for us was the spacious room with twin beds. We were charged the price of a king room and did not get it. Hard to even tell this is a hotel, really need to pay attention when you arrive. Is close to shopping, but really no dining options. Car park gate is down a sketchy alley past garbage and junk piled up. Car park is very tight.
