The staff were incredibly friendly and the property has a wide range of amenities. The rooms need better sound proofing - I'm not sure if there was a conference on near our unit but there was constant noise/people talking loudly to each other throughout the evening and early hours of the morning.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The staff are friendly but slow overall. The venue while decent on the outside is not clean or maintained in the room. They have carpets, it’s smelly and I found someone’s press on nail on the carpet and bugs and dust balls everywhere in the room. It’s convenient for location but they need to do better maintaining the room and cleanliness

Two nights out of four very very noisy. No sleep before 02.00 am due to a wild local conference from Union. It was a night club in the walkways with music and alcohol and sings. Had to call a few times the security but it did not stop.
