Room was spotless. Minor repair required on shower head. Staff were super friendly. Parking was plentiful. Occasional hawker in the car park. Bar was great place to relax and watch a bit of sport. On quiet nights there were a few too many staff politely hovering but not overbearing.

Amazing place to stay however the only thing annoying is that when you want room service you have to order at the bar which defeats the purpose of ordering room service, you might as well eat in the restaurant. This was advised to me by front staff. But overall, worth the stay.
