Room had an awful smell. Otherwise it was very clean. Breakfast had a good array of options. Area was close to mall, there was a shuttle service to/from hotel to mall for free. I was told area was not safe so took advantage of shuttle to go to the mall which was very nice, had several supermarkets inside as well. I did like being able to reserve a car pickup from airport to hotel- did this by emailing them- was very affordable. $35 usd. Driver (Phumlan) was very friendly and informative. Staff at hotel were all very friendly as well.

Our stay was good. The service and staff were excellent and went above to make sure that we were comfortable and safe. The location is great for the Rosebank Mall a few minutes walk away or a ride on the complimentary shuttle service. We ate dinner one night at the bar and the food was fresh and so tasty. Some areas for growth: The breakfast was the same all 3 mornings. Maybe change one or two dishes to add a bit of variety. The carpet in the hallways looked dirty and dated the hotel.
