Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked in recently: "Great Service"
Overall score4.0/ 5
We thoroughly enjoyed the service we received from your desk staff, your housekeeping staff and your restaurant staff.
John K. (Group coordinator, booked 3 room(s)), from 
15-Dec-2019 Verified review, stayed from Sat Dec 14 to Sun Dec 15 2019 at a $126.54 average nightly rate. 
"Update!"
Overall score3.0/ 5
Average amenities. Hotel needs updating. Overall okay stay.
April P. (Individual traveller, booked 1 room), from
17-Aug-2019 Verified review, stayed from Fri Aug 16 to Sun Aug 18 2019 at a $91.20 average nightly rate. "Dirty, poor working toilet."
Overall score2.0/ 5
After finding out we were going to be charged $29.99 for parking, we went up to our room to find hair on the pillows, stain on the sheet. The toilet didn't flush well, it literally left everything on the top of the basin and you had to physically scoot everything towards to hole so that it would flush. Disgusting. Not worth the $150 we paid for one night and parking.

17-Jul-2019 Verified review, stayed from Sun Jul 14 to Mon Jul 15 2019 at a $104.72 average nightly rate. Property description
