Very clean and modern love the roomy bathroom and shower it’s a handy location to get around the city and would highly recommend this place. The only downside was the bedroom could only fit in one bedside table which for a couple is not ideal but other than that everything else was great

We stayed here for one night, 10 minutes from the airport which made this a convient hotel the night before a flight. Staff was very friendly and kind , room was clean and comfortable. They have easy parking on site. Complimentary tea and coffee in the rooms. Has small kitchenette with fridge which is nice if you want to make your own meal . I wish we had to time to enjoy the cafe that was downstairs it looked wonderful

There is free parking within the hotel area which is great for those driving. We got assigned ground floor wheel chair friendly room and the washroom was extremely big and spacious. Biggest I have ever seen. The bathroom is also fitted with grab bars as well, very elderly friendly in my opinion. Recommend if you are travelling with elderly. The room is spacious and extremely clean as well
