Joe at the front desk was amazing for our check in, we had a terrible experience at an air bnb and needed a room ASAP with early check in and he got us in with no questions asked. The hotel was clean and comfortable and the entire stay was over the top. 10/10 cannot recommend enough.

Disappointing stay with this well known brand. Elevators smelt of urine, room smelt of weed. Location is very good. Manager was sympathetic with our complaints and handled the matter to our satisfaction in the end. Unfortunately I would not stay here again

John Edward

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property was not up to the standard that I’d expect. The room was large, but some of the wood panelling was missing in the room. Additionally, the air conditioning was incredibly loud. A minor point was the layout as you enter the hotel, everyone seemed to have the same issue of not really knowing where to check-in. A big disappointment was the permanent swimming pool closure. No one warned me of that and it was one of the reasons for booking.
