I stayed in one of the newer renovated rooms. It was very clean and comfortable. Loved the rainfall shower. My only issue is that I wish there was sheer blinds or tinted windows as you can see right into people’s rooms when the blinds are up (majority of rooms are on ground level).

The location is very good, near to everything, the staff were very friendly and helpful and the room was of good size and bed was very comfortable. The room was clean and tidy. The bathroom needs an uplift and there is enough space to make the shower standalone and modern. The buffet breakfast options were very poor and minimal especially compared to last time we stayed here and for that reason we will not be coming back again.

One night stay, our room was comfortable, roomy, good bed and linen, how ever the cleaning staff need to be more particular looking at exhaust fan in bathroom, under vanity and around windows, also bathroom floor grout needs a steam clean . Often cleaners are pushed for time and thats where good management plays it part, l can recommend this accommodation for a comfortable night.
