“Good stopover hotel but wouldnt stay longer”
Good location to Joes Beerhouse. Very friendly staff and nice fun vibe. Good choice of beer and wine selection. They will collect/ drop of in the city. Reasonable prices We stayed two nights, one at the beginning and one at the end of our trip. The first stay was great. No problems.

We loved the location and facilities. Especially having breakfast outside. The staff were mostly friendly, especially our waitress on the Friday evening. The beer was really good. We liked that there was an option to try rice porridge with some Chinese sauces at breakfast one morning. I loved the cabbage salad/sauerkraut in the evenings. And my ribs were quite tasty although a bit overcooked and dry in places.

“A lovely home-away-from home for a work trip.”
Lovely home away from home hotel. I stayed in the deluxe room and it was definitely worth a little extra. I felt very comfortable here, and the pool and outdoor seating and all of the flowers and greenery was very nice. It was a comfortable and enjoyable space to be in after a long day of work. Good restaurants around the area too.

The Room was very basic and outdated. Instead of a double bed, I got to single beds. There was not plug for the basin which made it difficult to shave as the water from the tap was a type of spray. (to save water I guess) The first night my TV did not work.
