Liked: Amenities
Staff were courteous. The room needs some improvements. The one sink (in the bathroom) requires drain cleaning. Water did not drain away rapidly. The bed was large, firm and comfortable. The bulb was missing from a lamp beside the bed so I couldn’t use the bed lamp. The table and chairs were very handy for eating food. Lots of restaurants are nearby so the location is really good. It is good value accommodation; however, the place smells strongly of some type of air freshener. I was overwhelmed by the strong smell upon entering the room. Why use such strong air freshener? Cleanliness could be better. I had to wash a couple of chairs because they had hair on them. The place is well priced and close to the city centre. Parking spaces were located out front and close to the unit.

Great place to stay.

The room was spacious with desks and eating areas. The bed was very comfortable. The only thing less than perfect - and this is a personal preference - the pillows were too high for comfort.

We arrived much earlier than expected and were warmly welcomed by the staff, which was greatly appreciated after a long drive. The room was spacious, clean, and perfect for our family of six. The location is convenient—close to food options and easy to get around. Unfortunately, we did have very loud neighbours who disturbed our children’s sleep several times throughout the night, which did impact our overall stay, but not the fault of hotel. Otherwise, it was a great stopover.
