Guest review
9.0Everthing
− Must verify if the linen is changed after one's check out
Always a great stay
10.0It was my 4th time staying here and I am always impressed by their facility. It's clean and it's convenient when attending something at the Sunbet Arena
− Nothing
The web site creates the wrong impression and MUST be corrected.
4.0Breakfast was excellent - beyond expectation. Chef and waitress were outstanding in every way. The security is good the gardens well maintained. The linen [other than the pillows] was good.
− We booked there because on their web site it stated that there was a restaurant on site. When we arrived we were told that one had to order for dinner at breakfast each morning so the restaurant was not open that night - this was very inconvient for us. On the web site it stated that there was a sofa, hairdryer, desk [[we booked 2 rooms, only had a desk], tumble dryer and drying rack for cloths in the room - NONE of these items were there. The pillows were as hard as rocks, they did however replace with better pillows when I requested them. The one bedroom had a bedside light on both sides of the bed but no plug point that could be reached on the one side, so that light couldn't be used. In the room I used, both the toilet roll holder and the hand towel holder were loose and hanging down at and angle and will soon fall off the wall.
