Great little room and exceptional communication from staff. Only downside is the how loud the traffic is overnight, but there's little the hotel can do about that.

Outrageous pricing

The stay was fine and what you would expect, my only issue was the extreme rates being charged $420 per night as they knew the soccer comp was in town. We joined the team later so could t book far in advance and in terms of value for money it was very poor indeed. That rate is comparable to a 5star luxury hotel and as such it fell way short. Really taking advantage of parents.
