Unfortunately, we were in a room next to a service lift which was very noisy and also had a really dirty AC vent that caused us respiratory issues when sleeping in the room. The staff were so wonderful and understanding and moved us immediately to another room and upgraded us for our final night and we had a much better and quieter rest! Location is great for transport and dining options.

Main thing I didn’t like was nobody picking up phone (several times) when I called ( concierge, front desk, reception, house manager, etc). When we did reach staff, they were very helpful.

Overall the area was good, in a busy area. Everything is walkable and the noise factor was good. The staff was helpful. My only negative was the carpet was old and had not a bad smell, just an old smell. I literally had to buy air freshener because it bothered me. The bed was pretty comfy and they had a decent selection of channels to watch than most average hotels.

Called the hotel and was quoted over $400 for the night so I said I can get it for half that rate online so that’s what I did on Wotif When I got to the hotel I was told that the booking wasn’t in their system yet so go and have a seat and wait for it I was then told she can book me straight in but I’d have to cancel my online booking which I paid $207 for that had a no cancellation policy so she would take my booking directly for $260 and check me in straight away otherwise I would have to wait I said I can’t cancel my online booking and was told there is nothing she can do about that I presented my booking confirmation email and after demanding to speak to management she finally decided to check me in I’ve never been treated like that before by a hotel reception so it’s very disappointing
