Second time staying here, the indoor pool was nice, just under 20m in length and but the jacuzzi was a bit small for the number of guests staying at the hotel. The gym was nice enough also, I was able to get a decent workout using 7,8+ machines. The room was really clean and nice with fully stocked mini bar. Close from the grocery store and close enough from the Parliament House (walking distance).

Shocking, big cleaning problems here! Dishes, carpet & bathroom all dirty. Not just a little bit. Breakfast stale with very limited choice. Spar bath with lots of body foam. Car charger 10amp. Would take 32 hours to charge an average car.
On the other hand, surprisingly the gym & pool were good.

The over all experience was good, could have been a bit better in terms of service but then it was long Easter weekend with less staff..!!
