The rooms were clean and outfitted as advertised. There were additional charges for parking that were not included in the room fee. We checked in on Thurs at about 5pm. We left for activities on Friday at 10am and returned at about 3pm. On of the rooms had not yet been serviced.

Underwhelming

The hotel was clean but had a number of snags: No stairs and very few lifts so a constant queue and wait to go up and down which seems ridiculous as we were only one floor up and could quite easliy walk up some stairs. The only stairs were fire escapes which all exited out into the care park and had no way back in other than to walk around the perimeter of the hotel and re-enter at the front. The reception staff seemed keen on keeping all interaction with customers to an absolute minimum. They recoiled when approached and gave monosyllabic answers to queries. The small refreshment shop at reception seemed to be poorly stocked and items were not restocked as they ran out so by Sunday there was slim pickings. The bar staff were much friendlier and perky. The room was poorly designed, the lighting was awful with only one lamp in the living space and a single pendant. Even with these on the space was gloomy and uncomfortable. The mattress was comfortable but the pillows lumpy and tired. No complimentary water and an unusable one-legged ironing board were the icing on the cake... Breakfast was basic but decent, however the buffet always seemed to have run out of at least one item which made it a bit of a lottery as to what you might get. Overall disappointing for the high price paid.

Nice hotel, but the A/C wasn't working and it couldn't be fixed. We also had to ask multiple times for more towels. Unfortunately, there's no hot tub here. Pros: Happy Hour and breakfast.

The halls outside of the rooms were dirty. We had plates piled up outside our room when we checked in. We asked several times to have them removed. The next morning my son delivered the plates to the front desk. In other areas of the hallway were dirty glasses and plates, garbage, towels.
