Great staff, nice restaurant/bar and a great location. Bathroom is too small and only having instant coffee in the room was a disappointment as well as no smart TV. The gym was very tight. The laundry facilities were excellent and very reasonable at $2 per wash and $2 per dry.

We really liked the size of our room, our comfy bed, spacious bathroom with a large shower, and all within walking distance to the centre of the city. We paid for parking on site which was reasonable and convenient. We’d definitely stay here again.

Nice clean hotel with helpful staff.

Nice clean hotel with a nice restaurant adjacent. Staff are very nice and helpful, I particularly liked the fact that they reward you for not having your room serviced every day, it’s a very good idea. The only thing a would add is a microwave in the rooms, that would be very handy to have. Hotel is not right in the city, it’s a bit of a walk from the centre, there are others that are more central.
