Great staff and great pool. Rooms are small and back onto highway. Neighbouring rooms were screaming at 3am and kept us awake. A good place to crash for the night if you won’t be in your room much.

It was just so relaxing. The stafff were so accommodating when i had to extend my stay due to covid isolation protocols. The only prob was that doordash wasn't good at finding the entrance to the building - they kept going around the back of my wing.

It was a handy location, however the rooms are very dated. At least renew the Air-conditioning units as they are very noisy. The on-site Guest kitchen needs to be regularly cleaned.
