Very close to the convention & exhibition centre :) Only 2 teabags on our arrival, not replenished the next day when someone -a housemaid - came into our room during our absence. Couldn't listen to Australia all over on Sunday morning :( Unable to watch free-to-air tv, staff unable to assist. Bed made for VERY short people!
