Location was good, easy for Uber pickups. Felt the breakfast was overpriced and didn’t feel the $25 they charged and then there really wasn’t much to be able to use it for.

Fantastic stay, staff were friendly and helpful. Rooms were spacious, clean and comfy. We had one issue with an incredibly rude staff member - the barman on Saturday night at about 10.45pm. He was awful. I didn't want the rest of the team marked on his unpleasant manner.

The night worker, a young black guy was excellent, extremely professional and took really good care of us, which made me think the entire staff was like that. The day time staff was the complete opposite. Dismissive of needs, not professional, and not helpful. Your room is only cleaned every other day. I would not stay there again.
