Staff were lovely, one of our rooms was fab and looked to have been recently renovated but the other was quite dated, rooms were comfortable and a great price for a great location.

Very clean and modern. The staff was courteous, friendly, and prompt with fulfilling requests. The walk to the tram was just outside the hotel making it very easy to get downtown. I would definitely stay here again.
