Check in was not good as we saw dirty dishes and left over food left outside the door when we checked in. Everything else was good. Happy hour drinks was only limited to a select few drinks and was still expensive.

Housekeeping was a disappointment. Day 1 we checked in after 3 pm as our room was not ready. Day 2 our room was serviced at 5.30. Day 4 we went to breakfast at 8am, with 3 trolleys servicing rooms near by, but our room was serviced at 4.30pm.

Excellent location, check in staff super helpful and friendly. Great to be able to leave luggage after checking out to be able to explore more of the city before flying. Buffet breakfast outstanding with huge range of options. Very family friendly. Terrific location right on the light rail. Easy to get to from airport with public transport.
