Nice location and great architecture in the area. Close to restaurants and shopping. Would stay again but dislike that parking is paid to park in hotel car park. - Off street parking is available and plenty close by for free in evening hours. Would 100% stay again.

Great location, nice lobby, decent rooms. Staff is helpful but found them often busy talking to each other and leaving guests waiting - experienced this at the front desk and the pool deck. A/C in the room is not subtle and blows directly onto the bed.
