10/10 Excellent
"Was a very nice place to stay for four nights, centrally located to the public transport to PIR for the Indy event. Good security and restaurant downstairs was very good, enjoyed the buffet style breakfast every morning. Clean and quiet and the beds were absolutely comfortable and had no back pain. Front lobby staff very helpful and housekeeping when we needed it . Would return and parking was worth it as it felt safer to park on site ."
