We had a problem one night with the plumbing which made a terrible noise in the pipes and kept us awake all night. As a result we were exhausted the next day. The staff asked us to pack in case they needed to move us but we ended up staying in our room as it was fixed the next day.

The bed was very comfortable and the staff were great but the room was so loud! The air con rattled away in the corner all night and we could hear road noise and sirens even from the 15th floor. Parking was convenient but expensive at $45/night and couldn’t be booked in advance.
