Had a great stay here. Rooms immaculately clean ,well resourced,comfortable beds and nice and quiet despite its very central location. All staff we encountered were fantastic ,really attentive and going the extra mile to make the stay comfortable.
The breakfasts were fantastic ,so many options and yummy. Particularly appreciated the gluten free options.
So well located ,right next to central station and minutes away from the light rail. Would definately stay again
Room clean except under the bed needed to be vacuumed. Staff were friendly but check in was slow. Breakfast was great, lots of options. Location was ideal to everything we needed. Pool was cold which was disappointing.
