comfortable room thoughtful items non-dairy milk unwelcoming staff tired room worn mattress

I found many thoughtful items included. I appreciated robes and both dairy and non-dairy milk. The room felt clean and very comfortable. It was the best place I stayed .

The staff was not cute upon arrival. The service was not attentive and lacked organization. The rooms seemed very tired since my last stay. The bed felt worn with the mattress sloping into the centre.

great room helpful team nice location broken springs slow water thin mattress

the room was very great. it had everything i needed. the hotel team was also very helpful. i found the location really nice for seeing places around the city.

the sofa was not very good. the springs were broken and made it hard to sleep. my kids could not sleep there so we put the thin mattress on the floor. the shower had no pressure at all. the water only dripped out slowly.

the breakfast was quite disappointing it was mostly overcooked. what they called lorne sausage was a horrible thin pink 'meat'. it reminded me of the cheapest retailers. also, the staff on arrival did not seem very cute. the service was not particularly attentive and lacked a certain level of organization.
