warm welcome useful amenities security measures
gordon at reception welcomed us SO tenderly , after hard international travel, that began my stay wonderfully. our beautiful king room had beautiful decor and included amenities that were useful. the location was perfect for me as a solo traveller, and i felt very secure with the hotel's security measures.
The hotel gym, while adequate, lacked variety. I hoped to find punch bags for boxing but only found machines.

The hotel has a swimming pool, gym, and sauna. The staff are very friendly. The rooms are comfortable at this hotel. I found the hotel to be very nice.
I was charged a non-refundable fee even though I did not use the amenities. I asked why this could not be included in the daily rates. The answer was not satisfactory. One entrance to the hotel is locked at 6 pm. I had to walk up the stairs. I noticed the lifts were poorly signposted.
