Very well located, few mins to buses and trains. Excellent amenities in the room. We had an issue with our humidifier, but the staff promptly replaced the unit. The breakfast was minimal but just enough. Kids loved the free ice pops. Very happy with the 3 nights spent here.

Out of all the hotels we have been at these have been the best dryers available. We left with dry clothes for once ! It was a clean hotel and able to get to places fairly easily. Though one thing I will mention is having to get an app to check in was a bit annoying and that all parties in my group had to do that. But other than that we enjoyed out stay !

"Large hotel. Everything okay. Only issue is during check in, front desk was not busy with 3 to 4 staff standing by doing nothing but will not check us in. Asked to use self service. Self serve did not work. Ended back at front desk and finally got checked in. Not very courteous and quite frankly ..."
