Great location. The bus stop right outside may either be a bonus or deterrent as lots of people hang out there.

Just a one night stay. There was confusion about our booking when checking in. The receptionist was patient and attentive to our concerns and upgraded our room free of charge, so our thanks to her.

Checking in and out was quick and easy. Good recommendations for food and music at check in. Breakfast was good with lots of options. Long walk to our room, lights out by our lift. Had to park nearby at public car park.
