Other than the bed being too hard, I had absolutely no problems. The check-in was quick and easy. The staff friendly and my room was cleaned without me asking for the service. Loved that the back entrance was literally in gateway parking lot.

Spotless but there were tiny ants daily in the room. I reported it to front desk. They were going to do something about it. Staff were courteous, professional and respectful. Breakfast was overall good. The service to use gym on sister hotel City Lodge is an excellent arrangement. I used it and thoroughly enjoyed the service.
Nice family friendly swimming pool outside hotel.
Nice breakfast served every morning.
The extended gym facilities at opposite sister hotel City Lodge.
