    The staff were friendly and helpful, ensuring a pleasant experience. The room was clean with comfortable beds, although the decor felt a bit dated and could use a refresh. Breakfast options were decent but could benefit from more variety, particularly for vegetarians.

    Great staff, not great beds

    The staff were super friendly and really helpful! They sorted out a room switch for me in the middle of the night, which was awesome. But the bed I ended up with was pretty broken. the leg gave way and I couldn’t sleep well. The breakfast was decent, and I liked the bar area.

    Decent Stay with Room for Improvement

    Enjoyed a spacious room and friendly service, though the damp smell lingered during our visit. The location is convenient near entertainment options, but approach can be tricky due to poor signage. Consider ordering food in advance on rainy nights—an onsite restaurant would enhance the experience!

    Comfortable stay with some hiccups

    Had a pretty decent night here! The room was clean and comfy with a good bed, but the breakfast wasn’t great. The scrambled eggs were rubbery, ugh. The location's really handy, and there's loads of parking, which is a plus. Just wished the food was a bit tastier.

    good check-in

    Recommend it for families with children

    So we stayed at this hotel for a few days, and I must say the staff were friendly. When we arrived, the check-in process was smooth, and I was greeted with a warm welcome, which was nice.

    It wasn’t exactly inexpensive, but it was still acceptable for a budget stay.

    The Standard Double Room was super comfy and had great amenities like air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, a kettle, and free toiletries. The bathroom was clean with a good shower. Plus, the breakfast had fresh options and the staff was really nice, making it a pleasant stay. Special mention to the free parking, which was a huge bonus.

    spacious room
    comfortable bed
    strong shower pressure
    worn mattress
    poor soundproofing

    The room was spacious and clean, which was great! The bed was really comfy, but I did notice the mattress had some issues. it felt a bit worn. we enjoyed the shower pressure, and the little notes in the bathroom were a nice touch. Just a heads-up, soundproofing could be better since I could hear people in the hallway. But, the place overall had a cozy vibe.

    Good shower pressure, clean common areas, spacious family rooms

    Incredibly frustrating to deal with noisy guests and the lack of effective sound insulation!!! Elevator issues and confusing parking rules added further irritation during our stay!!! Some modern upgrades would surely enhance comfort!!!

    Decent Stay with Some Room for Improvement

    The entrance welcomes with friendly staff and clean surroundings. My room felt comfortable despite a few scuffs. Breakfast offered standard options, but something warmer might be nice. Be cautious with room choice. check reviews for specifics. good value for a quick stop.

    easy access
    uncomfortable mattress

    Had a great time with friends! We enjoyed paddleboarding on the canals and visiting the aquarium, which had some cool penguins and a 4D cinema. The place was clean and the staff very helpful. Just a heads-up, meals aren't served on the weekends, so plan ahead. Easy access to the city was a big plus!

    The mattress in my room was really uncomfortable and made it hard to sleep. It felt like I was going to roll off any second. That was definitely a letdown and something I hope gets fixed soon.

    local dining
    comfortable beds
    cleanliness issues

    The hotel offers easy access to various local dining options, with eateries just a short walk across the road from the property. Rooms feature comfortable beds that provide a decent night's sleep despite facing a main road.

    Check-in left much to be desired, with rooms not ready upon arrival, forcing us into a wait that felt unnecessary. The elevator was out of order, making trips to higher floors a hassle, and the overall cleanliness left something to be desired, with carpets in common areas looking quite worn. Noise issues from outside and other guests could interrupt sleep, and the breakfast service felt lackluster, with many food items running out quickly. Inconsistent maintenance of rooms, including issues with drainage in sinks and leaking showerheads, further detracted from the experience.
