There was an evacuation alarm at 0430 in the morning. Getting back in after the event was a nightmare. Staff did not have the brains to open the fire exits to let people in, instead we had to wait for the lift that held 8 or so people. I do believe the lift to the car parking was also used. . There were many elderly people and children left out in the cold. I did not see a staff member at all. Where is the communication. Staff should have been visible with afire warden high vis vest and helmet. Poor form and I was having such a nice stay.

Only problem was arriving at 7pm to check in- reception button wasn't connecting and neither was the number listed at the door, so we were a little panicked that we weren't going to get in! But the girl who eventually answered was most helpful and offered me two free drinks for my troubles. Oh, and 2 times my room card stopped working and we had to get new ones in order to use the elevator. Overall though, a great place to stay in a great location and everyone was very helpful, even when I locked our key in the room!

The place was clean as, the aircon as soon as you walked through the main door was amazing with it being red hot outside! Plus the aroma smelt so so good. The guy early morning checking out didn’t seem to know what he was doing on the computer. Took his time still wasn’t sorted, but we had to leave because my uber was outside waiting! Overall great stay would recommend the hotel! 5*
