Probably the best thing about it is that it is located at a very central location. The interior of the hotel is very dated. For what it charges, I don't find it value for money.

Allow complimentary short-term parking

Pros: All facilities. Comfortable.
Cons: Short-term parking for guests.
Location: Ideal location. Central. Near Gaya Street. Five minutes on foot from everywhere.
Everything was fine, but I cannot give a rating of 5 because my visitors were treated badly when they asked for complimentary parking. As a hotel guest, I should be able to "sign off" my invited guests' parking. They were only there for 15 minutes, in order to collect me. Such short-term parking is allowed in other hotels, and this was an unpleasant experience for my guests and for me. This is really short-sighted, and I won't return to this hotel unless this policy is revised.
