A very pleasant stay.
Pros:

Did not have breakfast there. Room was spacious & quiet. Hotel was in excellent location - very central for our needs.

Cons:

We would've liked to have dined at the restaurant but thought it was way too expensive. Perhaps some smaller, more casual meals could be added to the menu. Perhaps some more information on restaurant breakfast & dining room menus etc could be left in the room.

An enjoyable over night stay and being conveniently central to town is a bonus
Pros:

Centre of town, modern decor, lovely bar downstairs to relax and enjoy cocktails and friendly staff. Quiet throughout the night, comfortable bed. Police station behind hotel. Plenty of free parking around if hotel parking is full.

Cons:

Really we do not have anything negative to say. The property met our expectations and we would definitely stay there again.

Cons:

Whilst the room was advertised as petite it was just too small, and the surroundings were very noisy. We had dinner at the hotel's restaurant which was expensive and then when we paid for the meal we discovered there was a 15% public holiday surcharge. This was a shock, had we known before the meal we would not have dined at the restaurant. it made for a poor, expensive and somewhat regrettable experience all round.
