Great hotel, nice modern facilities and impeccably clean. We were travelling for a wedding and the staff were so accommodating with an early check-in so we could get ready. Parking was easy too. Thank you for a lovely stay.

The staff at this property were terrible, they were unable to do there jobs competently. The property itself was great but not worth the effort to deal with the staff. The area is not very close to restaurants and tourists areas

three staff standing behind the counter but i was directed to a kiosk to check in. not welcoming at all and to be honest soured my experience overall. i didn't realize that there was a rail yard behind the hotel - very noisy, especially at night. not much in the way of restaurants nearby except for a Vietnamese which was closed. room was ok but easy to hear outside noises and conversations / tv from other rooms. wouldnt stay again at this hotel and would be reluctant to stay at a sebel in the future.
