Front desk staff were excellent
Pros:

Front desk was excellent. Room 810 was warm overnight as the fan wasn’t working as it should at 18degrees (high fan speed). TV was on & off so we couldn’t watch tv for the rugby game that Saturday night

Cons:

Tv & room heating/cooling to be looked at .. and Prime car parking was good for $25. But I struggled to fit my car in the tight car parking spaces

The rooms were tired and poorly decorated/ I pulled the curtains and wondered if it was art or a scene of a crime! (It was supposedly art). Air conditioning was not working properly room was hot and stuffy.
