Hotel rooms were clean and modern. Unfortunately the air-conditioning wasnt working in any of the rooms, we were provided with a useless fan which just circulated the hot air meaning our room was 28°c all night.

Despite being advertised, property has no aircon. Unfortunately travelled on one of the hottest days, and all they could provide was a tower fan to recirculate the warm air around the room. Not the best experience and staff seemed to have heard the same complaint over and over.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I liked the location and ease of access from downtown. The entire experience has been soured by the lack of notification of a pre-existing problem at the hotel in regards the non working AC. The fact that we aren't refunded following default by the hotel to provide advertised facilities is criminal and I will let everyone I meet know not to stay at the establishment.

Upon arrival there is no friendly welcome from reception as there was no one there. The room was large but 29 degrees and you have zero control over your room temperature, there is a broken panel on the wall and "reception" controls the temperature. Housekeeping told me to use a very large and loud fan to cool the room down. Fell asleep and the. Woke up at 3 am freezing cold. I do not recommend this joke of a hotel and won't be returning.

Ice Cube!

The bedroom was stone cold - a little oil fired radiator was in the room (not on on arrival!) but inadequate. The bathroom radiator was also off on arrival. Cob webs on lights and wall paper scratched. The service was friendly and effective. The breakfast coffee was stewed. Breakfast itself was good.
