Hotel is under renovations and it’s a bit dusty. Our room was not available and the 3 of us had to share a king size bed. There was a pull out sofa but it didn’t seem too comfortable.

We arrived late night and waited 40mins trying to check in before asking agency we booked through to change to a different hotel. This process took over 1.5hrs going until 130am and we had young children who just wanted to go to sleep. The man was not able to unlock his computer to allow for us to check in.
