“The location scores well for business; near MartiniPlaza and Gasunie HQ, it's also handily placed for attractions if you've got your own transport. Rooms have the modern comforts you'd expect, and the restaurant stands out for its quality. In my view, this property works best for those prioritising function and a reliable base.”

not the best experience, sadly

good locationnoisy air conditioningno extra blankets

the location was okay and i can easily access the freeway.

the air conditioning was very noisy and made it hard to sleep well, disappointing. i also found no extra blankets in the room when i needed them. the room view looked out onto a loading dock and freeway, not pleasant at all.

sagging mattressinadequate pillows

The room i occupied was disappointing. the mattress had a noticeable sag on one side, a defect i find unacceptable. pillows were also inadequate for proper rest. They lacked proper support. weak water pressure in the shower further detracted from the experience.
