An overnight business stay which could have been more enjoyable if I’d chosen to stay elsewhere.
Pros:

Basic room amenities, clean and reasonably well maintained.
Comfortable bed . Nice large TV .
Reception staff were very friendly and informative.

Cons:

Room was very basic and outdated.
Walls are paper thin and outside walkway lighting will keep you awake all night . Bring your earplugs , eye mask and maybe your own full size pillow if you’d like to sleep. Parking is not suitable for vehicles that are higher than 1.9 meters in the hotel’s designated basement park due to clearance restrictions on the down ramp .
