Really good City Center Suites!
bedroom suite easy ramp helpful hotel
The three bedroom suite had an really good space, really! Two folks used crutches due to injuries, and there was tons room to move about. Ramps from the front door were so welcomed. Its closeness to the central area meant a wheelchair was easy to use! The hotel provided some assistance for us to manage our stay which was fantastic.
The boiler had issues the whole time, I reported it to reception since I could not get hot water. It ran hot for mere minutes. I could not use the bath. The boiler needed resetting all the time.
