The property was very clean and tidy.
The only downfall staying at this property was the music coming from the gym early in the morning.

In terms of location - perfect! I was there to watch netball at the arena and you couldn't ask for more! Walkable distance - check! Nearby cafes - check! Fantastic staff - check! The only hiccup was accessing the free parking (not obvious)... you need to park nearby first, and check-in to have a staff member show you free parking spaces - once you're in the know - perfect!

It was clean & comfortable.
Check in closing at 5.00pm was a bit of hassle- had to wait in cold wind.
We found the hotel hard to find.

I have no problem with this hotel, from when I first arrived until I left. The Duty Manager clearly explained what I needed to know. The cleaning staff were friendly & provided an excellent service which I really appreciated. The only downside was the early morning music from the adjoining gym, which I understand was being looked into.

Hotel was nice and clean and modern. But the gym across from the hotel had a fitness class that started at 5.00am and it sounded like they were in the room with me. Out side noises like this and the train line close by could be an issue

I emailed the hotel as my family member who the booking was for could no longer stay as they had been rushed to hospital. They denied me a refund.
