Try the Pork Belly...yum!
A quirky place! The room was smallish so if you need laptop space and there are two people, it's a little crowded BUT for the price it is great value. Fantastic restaurant. Great food at competitive prices. Friendly folks. Very good undercover parking.

Loved the rooftop bar and pool.
The staff were very professional. Ryan at the reception was very helpful and made our stay a pleasure. We informed him that our plane may be late as it was a late flight and he waited for us at reception, ensuring a smooth check-in. We also had an early checkout and gave us early access to the lift.
Andreas (at reception) and Tita (the housekeeping lady) were also helpful. I will definitely stay there again!
