Good location. Dirty room
Great location for what we were there for. Beautiful hotel. Our room was 1 1/2 hrs late being ready for check in. We were exhausted. We were compensated with a free drink. There was food left in the mini fridge and stains on the sofa bed and sitting area chair.

Very convenient
Our family of 4 stayed for 3 nights, and we had included breakfast. The room was nice and plenty of selection at breakfast. When we checked in in the evening and went to have showers, there were only 2 towels despite the booking being for 4 people. We got more by going back down to the front desk. When housekeeping changed our towels each time, they would only leave 2 each time.
The hotel was in a great location. Close to public transport and restaurants.
