This is a great place to stay for a few nights, good size room and bathroom etc. One thing they could change is add a mattress topper on the bed as it was pretty hard and uncomfortable.

Great Stay!

Great location. Close to dining and shopping. Short walk to the Sky Tower or even the water for other food and shopping. Not far from airport, 25-30 mins.
