Popular location
Guests have rated the location of this hotel highly. Although not in the heart of the downtown district, this area is within easy reach, as is the airport. It’s likely that you’ll need a car here but with transport in place, few of the popular destinations in the area are more than a 15 to 20-minute drive from the hotel.
positive:
Good selection of facilities

Negative Reviews
negative:
Disappointing fitness facilities
Although guests have enjoyed the range of facilities here, they do tend to find the fitness center is too small. The equipment is limited to a handful of machines so it seems likely that you would need to get lucky to find any equipment available to use.
negative:
Dated appearance
Guests often comment that this hotel looks rather dated and as if it hasn’t been updated in a long time. It does appear that renovations are planned although it is unclear when these will take place.
negative:
Some maintenance issues
In addition to the dated appearance, guests also report a variety of maintenance issues. These include plumbing problems, burnt out lights, and broken electrical sockets.
