Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Easy to get to from the Stadium, parking wasn't available and was instructed to park towards the stadium (at least 10 minute walk away) instead of the carpark building 2 mins walk on Stout street? Good service in restaurant for breakfast except from the Matradee that didn't seem to have time to be nice. Overall was a good place to stay and we would go back again, despite the little things with parking and restaurant staff.
