Rooms had air conditioning, and wash cloths. Bed was 7/10 a little hard. Parking was a bit away from the hotel and there were roads closed due to construction to get to the parking lot, so tricky to find the lot, but convenient once we did.Hotel overall was very nice and had a beautiful bar, restaurant and coffee shop.I would recommend.

The staff are very nice, friendly and well trained. The need to get a better system going with booking taxis though. It was confusing. Waiting outside, no one knew what taxi was for whom. I booked a taxi the day before and the taxi was late and it had to be re-ordered or contacted/reminded to pick me up. The hotel facilities were good and I would stay there again. I would recommend this hotel.

Expected more. Disappointed that when room was turned down rubbish wasn’t removed, toilet rolls wernt replaced, iron was left out etc from this standard of hotel you would expect all of the above, dusty in areas, staff were slow but friendly. Bathroom needed some desperate tlc, shower leaking, difficult to use. Location is the only thing that would make us stay again.
