Polite and efficient service. Upgrade from single to double/queen bed was an unexpected and welcomed surprise. Overall excellent value for money. Pleasantly surprised by the room and hotel amenities. A beautiful building or will be once they finish their works.

Cosy common area, complete with a small library. Breakfast was cheap and really good. For an extra $6, o...
