I found the free bus passes very useful, the bus stopped right at the hotel , made getting around simple. the staff replaced my safe quickly. They fixed it within minutes of my call. i parked in the free underground parking. This was a very convenient amenity. i liked that i could walk to the main part of town easily.
My room was a bit too small. I wished i had more space to move around comfortably.

The staff were friendly and helpful. The location allowed me to easily jump on the Roam bus in any direction I needed. The grotto hot tub was very cool (I visited it in the morning).
The walls were paper-thin. I could hear noises from neighbouring rooms. The tv was quite old. There was no guide to find channels. I had to scroll through all of them.
