Check in was quick and smooth, the room was very clean, the bathroom was the cleanest I’ve seen anywhere! The restaurant food was absolutely delicious. It was very close to the downtown core area for little shops and coffee shops and a quick drive to major shopping malls and gas stations. I had a wonderful stay and would definitely come back again.

Hotel staff were excellent. The restaurant and lounge are very nice. We had an issue in our room because the shower didn't work. As we were only staying one night we only noticed on the morning we were checking out, which was a shame. Had dinner and breakfast at the hotel and both were great.
