Positive Reviews
positive:
Located near amenities
Guests have generally found the location of this hotel convenient, mentioning that they found the property within easy reach of downtown amenities. Shopping, dining, and attractions are all within easy reach either by car or public transport.
positive:
Affordable hotel option
The rates here are found to be affordable, especially for a hotel so close to the downtown area. Aside from the reasonable rates, guests also find the cost of dining in the adjacent restaurant is reasonable. Note, though, that parking at this hotel does attract a daily fee.
positive:
Friendly staff
Despite a few service-related incidents, the majority of guests have found this family-run hotel has friendly staff at the helm. Guests have found the owners and staff are welcoming and reasonably helpful with things like directions and storing luggage.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Lacks cleanliness and maintenance
Reviews indicate that this hotel would benefit from better standards of cleanliness and maintenance. Guests have found the communal areas, in particular, are disappointing.
negative:
Noisy surroundings
Guests note that this hotel is located on a busy intersection and, as a result, traffic noise can be a problem. Reviews also indicate that internal soundproofing is poor - a fact that is worsened by the fact that the hotel plays loud music each evening.
negative:
Disappointing breakfast
Previous guests haven't been overly impressed with the breakfast. The free meal is fairly limited in choice and is often found to be of a poor standard. Guests who ordered off the menu didn't realise that this came at an extra cost.
