Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I stayed in the king room and informed staff that was with infant. Although the cot that provided was great, the rest of the room was not. while I understand hotels are not baby proofed, what I found in our room was shocking. A bag of malteasers had been split under the chair and on the balcony by previous guests and not cleaned up. I did not realize this until I noticed my baby choking on one. The second night I found 3 bottles of half emptied alcohol under the bed. also a risk

Food service was too long and our food was nearly taken by someone else as there is no system in place to get to the right person. And found it appalling that I had to pay for parking after paying 800.00 for a 3 night stay, I would not stay there again and would not recommend to friends or family your service desk staff are obviously in the wrong jobs as no smile or greeting on arrival or departure. The showers are full of mould needs to be cleaned properly by cleaner.

Unfortunately the construction at front and entrance has an impact on flow of people, if you wanted to go out the back to the coffee shop , the first time the restaurant doors were open and made it easy, next 3 times the doors were locked and had to go out the front doors, down the construction path and walk right beside the traffic, why not leave the restaurant doors open and save a possible traffic accident. Understand the time of visit, but no restaurant to dine either night, so we went to other hotels that had open restaurants
