Lovely room and excellent service. It was a nice surprise to receive a complementary mimosa on arrival. There was also a computer error with our checkout time but the staff honoured the late check out which was very kind. The bar and restaurant was also awesome (the cocktails are delicious!!!). The only thing that wasn’t exemplary was the additional fees for parking when the public parking lot directly nearby was cheaper, but only a minor inconvenience. Everything was fantastic.

Hello Leigh, thank you so much for taking the time to send your feedback on your recent stay with us, we very much appreciate the feedback. We are glad that overall it was a great stay and starting your stay with a Mimosa is always a nice surprise. The car park next door to us is a great alternative for us as we do have limited parking on site and although slightly higher it can be a convenience to have it right on the doorstep with in and out access as much as you like during your stay.
