"When we arrived they told us they upgraded our room, that was a nice surprise. The room was clean and spacious. Downside was that our room was facing a busy road. We were staying for a concert at Spark Arena - Location was only a $10 uber to spark and the room had a good bathroom as well as full length mirror in the room which was perfect for getting concert ready. I found the bed too firm but my partner thought it was okay."
"Very clean and tidy room. Comfortable bed and pillow.
Handy location from the motorway.
Free parking on site.
The staff member was very professional and helpful"
