Good staff, good breakfast and the upgrade to cooked breakfast was only $15. Rooms are dated, but good, clean, well furnished. Bathroom could use an update but was totally fine. Good location to shops, botanic gardens, restaurants. Good parking too.

The air conditioning unit made a strange loud noise about once an hour. Once we realised it was the air conditioning unit we turned it off and got some sleep. Plenty of parking at the rear and all the main shops were very close by. Breakfast was continental and had plenty of choice. All in all our stay here was very enjoyable.

Excellent continental breakfast with lots of fruits. Building old and needs updating — shower water pressure, room carpets, elevator, street noise. Parking lot can get filled. Great location, though. A do-able stop, but nothing special.
