The area around the hotel was a construction zone, no close available amenities and a considerable walk from areas with them, on check-in the staff seemed to select certain people to give a free glass of wine to however I was not offered any, the hotel came across as elitist

Hi Joanne,Thank you for taking the time in leaving us a review, we're terribly sorry to hear you felt that way. Guests that are a part of our membership program all are entitled to a free drink on arrival and this might have been the case. There is also a convenience store located directly behind the hotel and open everyday as well.

Liked the decor and rooms. What we didn’t like: poor bar service when not very busy (completely ignored while one bartender was chatting to two blokes as the other was making cocktails - then another man came to bar and was immediately served even though I, a mere woman, had been waiting patiently); and no toilet brush.
