Location is good, there are many restaurants nearby, shopping centres are in walkable distance. However, the cleanliness and condition of the place are quite average. We paid over 500 a night, not really worth the money. We unfortunately experienced a false fire alarm in an early morning, waking up by the alarm, kids were panicking and we walked the kids down the emergency stairs. Half way, the alarm stopped, but there was no announcement. When we went back to the hotel, the front desk casually let us know it was a false alarm. I would prefer an announcement letting us know it was a false alarm and everything was ok. The same night, my kids woke up a few times at night when they heard the car alarm sound from the street down below. The experience traumatised them a lot. The staff might have gotten used to the false alarm, but they still should treat it seriously and be informative, especially during the school holiday seasons when there are many children staying at their place. By the way, the view of the city is fantastic at night time.

I liked the location, the room and the hotel facilities. The staff were lovely. I did enjoy having a microwave in my room as I wake up at about 4.30am, and so I could make my own breakfast. As and it is impossible to get breakfast at this hour. The pool was great, but no towels left at 6.30am which was surprising. My clock radio was broken, reported but not replaced during my stay. I did have to ask to have my bins emptied. However, overall I did like the hotel and will book again in the near future.
