Good for 1 night stay

We had a one-night stay that was just what we needed. However, it could have been better if the neighbors weren’t a basketball team that kept throwing Haka in the middle of the night. It wasn’t the hotel’s fault, but since it was 10 p.m., no one answered the phone.

The marketing materials don't appropriately reflect the establishment. Half of the rooms are hidden behind the rooms shown on prmo materials. No views if the sunset from the Sundowner, which is disappointing.
