The hotel room was a little run down and needs some TLC, but it was a comfortable place to stay and had what we needed. The staff were very nice. Restaurant wasn’t available, so not sure what that’s like.

Stay was good but the rooms need a good clean… lots of dust on the stucco walls and ceilings. Other than that, staff were great and amenities are good incl gym and breakfast. Pricing is great for hotel close to the city.

To start with a positive, the staff were very helpful and friendly, excellent service. This is an older hotel that has unfortunately been let to run down. Our room was very tired and had not been upgraded in a long time. It was quite noisy and you could here everyone else around you, and a lot of light coming in around the windows and doors. In saying that, the bed was comfortable and the buffet breakfast was very good, a good selection and definitely helped me give them an extra star. If you are on a budget stay here, its safe and in a pretty handy location.
