I was not happy having to pay for parking as there was no mention of it when I booked. They have underground parking at their building but charge had I been aware I may have made a different choice. The staff were very pleasant that is what it had going for it. Do not think I would stay again I would find hotel with free parking

I did not like the fact that the hotel staff had to park your car instead your parking your own car. They charged you extra money for them parking your own car and that irked me! The rooms were clean but a little tight on space, especially the bathrooms.

While the room we stayed in was compact for 3 of us, the hotel overall was great. All staff were friendly, professional and tried their hardest to make sure your stay was a good one. We made use of the valet service - which was excellent.

Liked the location for its walkability into town and nice views over the river. Smallest bathroom and shower I’ve ever come across in a hotel (and I’m 5’2” and 115lbs!)
