We had a lovely stay, bit of a confusion over the booking when we arrived, as we had clicked 'breakfast included' on expedia, but this wasn't. Alvin was fantastic and sorted out. Hotel is located about a 20 min walk or 5 mins on the tram to the centre. Tram stop is outside. Breakfast is awesome, loads of choices. Would definitely stay again.

We expected a fancy four star hotel, however the hotel needs a face lift. It seems like you stepped back to the 70s/80s. Very old furniture, beds but comfortable, not many amenities in the room and all very basic. Looks like a clean motel on the inside.
