Spent six nights and was upgraded to an 2brm executive apartment. Found it noisy on the first night but didn’t notice any noise the following night and for the remaining of our stay. Clean and spacious. TV in second room didn’t work but wasn’t bothered. Location is great and nearby supermarket and local eatery. Staff were friendly and very professional. Overall thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.
