As below expectations as the Titanic

The cost of the room severely out weighted the actual experience. Clear cost cutting was evident from small towels in the bathroom, room amenities and the 5 items for breakfast was grossly below what you'd expect for a room of that cost for the night. We shall not be back and would advise staying somewhere else.

Great little hotel, excellent parking, and easy access to a major shopping mall. Hotel staff are very friendly and most helpful, I would especially like to mention a young lady whose name I believe is Elisha, who went above and beyond to help me during my stay. I would also like to mention in dispatches, for their great work ethic, Darren and Paul.

Staff was standoffish, bit of an attitude. I would not stay here again. I open the door to my room to find stairs to climb to a door that doesn't close because the inners are missing.
