Good a commodity on and relatively quiet, easily accessible. Breakfast is over-priced and have to pay separately for a barista coffee. Should at least have some bottled water in the fridge in the room as well.

I enjoyed my stay. It is well priced. The staff were helpful. The only challenge was using the laundry facilities. Some washing machines and/or dryers were out of order. Understanding the operating instructions was not easy. The laundry area needs a good clean up.

I found the reception staff to be a little less than helpful, however I know that they are front line and often get the brunt of people's frustration. I was awoken at 3.30am by the rubbish truck emptying the large blue bins, that was very annoying. One of the rooms I stayed in the bathroom was so small if I was a very large person I would have struggled to get in and move around. (511)
