Loved that the Hippos came out at night .

The bed was so uncomfortable and they weren’t very accommodating when asked to swop rooms . Asked twice and both times they couldn’t assist.

It is centrally located. The rooms are clean and neat. The breakfast selection was fair. The cleaning staff are friendly Check in was smooth

Our rooms were RIGHT at the back. Literally. I requested for a room closer to the front for my dad (old with a walking stick) and unfortunately this could not be accommodated. We even asked if he could park closer to the back and use one of the back entrances (maybe the conference room entrance or something). Unfortunately this couldn't be accommodated. It was sad to see him walk soooo far.
