The location was very convenient and I could easily walk to places. I like that right across the street there were places to eat. The room was serviced daily which was very nice. The staff in general were quite lovely. I would have liked more local food options. I definitely recommend staying there and would stay there in the future. Special thank you to Liam who did an amazing job with my arrangements and assisting with transportation from the airport!

The property is close to my family which was a plus but on the other hand for the price you are paying the rooms are in need of upgrading. There is also a challenge with the red worms, i woke up in the middle of the night to see one right by my side and also in the room.

I have to give kudos to the staff they were very professional and courteous.Breakfast was lovely. The location where breakfast was served was very breezy, bright and open and is a lovely architectural feature. Nice tea station set up in the room. Contained a refrigerator which worked well. Bedroom and bathroom were spacious although we could not get the cable TV to work even after requesting assistance from the front desk who did send a technician. Beds were comfortable but the room was not clean from house lizards. The room should be aired out and given a once over before customers arrive to ensure cleanliness. While the room seemed clean the lizard droppings made me feel like the whole room was dirty even if it wasn’t. Happy to see rooms were being upgraded and there is ongoing maintenance on the property as it is a lovely location and I would like to revisit in the future.
