The hotel was a short walk from a wide variety of restaurants and shops. There were plenty of scooters available which made downtown even more accessible. Staff were friendly and helpful. The only downside was the very limited parking, especially since an event was in progress. However the staff worked to ensure we had a spot to park the car.

Excellent stay every time

Love this hotel, have stayed multiple times for work, in a safe quiet area in easy walking distance to town. Staff are alwaysy lovely. This stay I had a funny noisy flappy sound outside my room which I phoned reception about and it was sorted with no interruption within 30mins. Room service options are good- the fried chicken is yum!
