This is the place to stay

Night away from home, receptionist very polite & efficient, bar staff engaging & great cocktails (probably would have stayed longer if they did a cocktail hour) huge comfortable bed, would have liked larger pillows, found them an odd shape, but still comfortable. Just far enough out of the city to be away from too much noise.

Disliked: Amenities
Tiny double room, with little space between foot of bed and wall. Tiny bathroom. Wardrobe shallow and only short hanging space. Worst feature was broken air conditioning on a warm humid night. Lift also broken but fortunately we didn’t have heavy luggage. Beware if booking through Expedia that breakfast isn’t included.
