Fantastic place to say very new and great facilities. The rooftop pool is a little small considering the size of the hotel and the beds are a little bit hard but other than that I had a great time.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, staff were so friendly, rooms were clean, spacious and cozy at the same time, bathroom concept is smart with the door doubling up as the shower screen/door. Loved the addition of the single lounge that is part of the bedhead and the dining area. Overall highly recommend if you want a quiet, yet central accommodation.

Nicholas

Very centrally located hotel that is close by to both restaurants and shopping. Parking facilities were also excellent and easy to use. Room was a bit small for a family and almost no shelf space for storage. Also, the complimentary breakfast is good but has limited options. Staff were always very friendly and helpful with the premises being very clean always. Would highly recommend for a short stay.
