Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
It was old and tired. Things did not work well. Room was heavily bleached so we needed to sleep with door open. Staff only half interested at best. Gym was old and broken. Way overpriced and over rated. Not a good experience

Facility is a little dated and could do with a bit of a facelift, but the staff were friendly and helpful, my room was in a good condition, and I spent a much needed restful night there with room service offered when the front desk lady realised how tired I was upon arrival.
