1st time staying there. Very handy to the hospital as my husband had a stay there. Would stay again.
One thing it would be good to have more disabled parking outside, which would make life easier.
Enjoyed the meals in the restaurant.

Good location, hotel was comfortable and clean. But we needed to request clean towels and the coffee draw to be refilled and nothing was done. Disappointed with that.

Staff were exceptionally kind & understanding and offered easy solutions to booking amendments, Mr Saga at the front desk is clearly from the old school of hotels and was professional, charming and accommodating. Beds are super comfy and the room was spacious, clean and has excellent air conditioning. Excellent location with public transport only a few steps away.

Staff members were friendly. However, we got disappointed by the housekeeping. Cleanliness was below expectations. The bathroom exhaust fan was not working, which meant everything stayed damp after we showered. In addition, our bath mat was removed on the first day and never replaced. Same with the face towel.
