Guests consistently gave feedback to say how they appreciated the location of this property. They remarked how it's close to the interstate and situated so it's simple to get to most of the area's main attractions by car.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Not Pedestrian Friendly
Although there are points of interest close enough to reach on foot, guests said it was impossible to get to them by walking. That's because they reported a lack of footpaths, and said it would have not been safe to walk regardless, because doing so meant crossing several lanes of traffic.
negative:
Hard to Find
This hotel is built within an industrial estate and guests often said they had difficulty finding it due to a lack of signage. Even when guests were being assisted by GPS devices, they still struggled to find their way.
negative:
Free Breakfast Not Available
Guests were disappointed that the hotel does not offer a complimentary breakfast. They frequently thought it should come with the room, considering the prices they'd paid, and they mentioned that the food the hotel does offer is too expensive.
