We liked the Italian Restaurant attached with friendly young staff and good food & service. Berny the receptionist was friendly. Unfortunately, the room was not clean, dirty towel on floor behind the front door, used toothpick & sticky residue on bedside table, hair/muck on bathroom floor behind toilet & bathroom sink, floor in room not clean. Air conditioning control knob broken, One mug & one chair in a King room, no hanging space/wardrobe. Sorry, it was disappointing.

Well-appointed rooms with the following issues: - One set of power points were not compliant and potentially a health and safety risk. - The parking bays are an extremely tight squeeze and could so with wider bays.
