excellent stay in the heart of everything
central location secure escort clean room
the location was central, a short walk to key spots like long street and bree street. i felt very secure during the day, and the staff escorted me at night, really helpful. there is also a bank close by, and the staff accompanied me there and back in the evenings. the room was very clean, and the bar upstairs was perfect for a nightcap.
the elevators seemed a little slow sometimes.

clean room helpful staff
the room was really clean. it had lots of room and the bathroom was big with nice toiletries. the windows in our room rattled as it was very windy but we sorted it out by stuffing paper in the gaps, it worked. staff were super friendly and helpful, they arranged our pick up from the airport and taxi to our next destination.
One very slight negative thing. You cannot park near to the entrance.

Acceptable, but some issues
The staff were friendly and helpful at all times.
The air conditioning in my room did not work. The hotel was fully booked, so they could not move me to another room. This made for an uncomfortable night.
