Don’t stay at property back, XFit gym starts at 4:30am right outside hotel!!
Pros:

It has a roof, and bed was comfortable.

Cons:

Somebody else took the keys to our room, so we had to use a random set of keys for a random room we found at the unmanned reception. Weird system.

Quick stay at an interestingly located hotel
Pros:

I liked that it was located in the middle of a bunch of businesses. Plenty of choices for food and places to hang out. I also liked the communication and ease of check-in and check-out.

Cons:

I was a little confused as to how to get to the hotel parking. I was able to work it out and it was very conveniently located. I also found it interesting to stay at a hotel and barely see any staff.

This is our third stay here this year. We will be back.
Pros:

The location is perfect. It’s very central to everything we need when we are here. The gym (BFT) is right next door, plus shopping, food and more. The staff are also very friendly and responsive to requests.

Cons:

Cleanliness. There was hair on the bathroom floor (not ours) when we arrived and dust along the skirting.
