Hamilton Executive Apartments
Cleaning was not the best, twisties under the bed and litter from previous people. Bed slopes from a peak down from the centre line to the edges.

The Executive Inn
Didnt use pool. Room was so noisy with traffic noise we found it hard to sleep. Only light curtains on windows and room was right at back of hotel close to a main road.
