The room was beautifully appointed. Clean and comfortable. Perfect for a single or couple.
I had originally booked the wrong nights but the staff were very helpful in adjusting the dates.
Right in the centre of the main shopping streets so getting around was easy. Being this close to everything there was certainly noise from the streets at all hours but hardly noticed it most of the time.
No on site parking but public parking was easy enough to access.
Would stay again.
The interior is excellent- designed to a high quality with new carpets, wall coverings, bathrooms and furnishings.
Ideal location right in the middle of tnr city.
The reception area is striking with the stunning art deco windows.
We loved our stay here. Worth every dollar paid. Thank you
