A bit tired, clean enough but the vents in bathroom could be dusted. Liked the EV charging facility. Would choose room on other side, though the views would not be as good it would be quieter but that is to be expected in the city and I liked the location close to Courtney Pl. Staff helpful. Empty Coke bottle in beverage cupboard overlooked. Cooked breakfast what I would usually call big breakfast a bit small, excellent poached eggs. Would also choose room on second floor for proximity to vehicle.

This was a nice, comfortable hotel and the breakfast and dinner were both good. They also have parking in the back of the hotel and it's pretty accessible to the hotel itself. Thank you to the staff for a nice stay!

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was clean but the furnishing were very dated and in my opinion in need of a facelift. Also the rooms and hallways still have dated carpeting and I also believe these need to be replaced as well. One last point, the windows are older and not soundproof and you could hear the wind throughout the night (i was on the 9th floor)...not a complaint but an observation. The staff were awesome - friendly and very helpful.
