the location was acceptable.

I found the pillows to be too thick and uncomfortable. It made for a bad night. drinks at the bar were also expensive. breakfast wasn't bad, but the food could have been hotter.

the staff was friendly enough, i suppose, greeting people with smiles and that stuff.

i booked a night here, what a mistake. the room looked so basic and terribly dirty too. there were stains on the bedding. mold covered the curtains. i didnt even bother eating at the hotel after that awful discovery.

the room was quite spacious. i found the large fluffy towels provided to be a plus. the toiletries were also very nice. the location worked well, i could walk to many places. the breakfast included many choices and was plentiful.

the tea tray in the room had only basic nescafe coffee and standard custard creams. it seemed a bit budget.
