"The room was a good size, modern and clean, with the bed being really comfy. Air-conditioning worked perfectly, and the front desk staff were super friendly and happy to help me get to and from my events. There’s a taxi rank right out the front, and the secure off-street parking was a big plus. Buffet breakfast runs from 6–9 a.m., and there’s also room service if you feel like staying in."

"The staff was super kind and helpful - they even let us check in early! We loved that they offered coffee packets, a microwave downstairs, laundry ($4 per load), and that it was in an ideal location (25 minute walk from the Lagoon). The showers were a bit mid, though, as water constantly leaked out from the borders. Otherwise, we loved our accommodation and would definitely stay here again!"
