I felt safe during my stay. The staff were also extremely friendly and accommodating, always willing to assist guests. The towels and bedding provided were of great quality, ensuring a comfortable and restful sleep during my seven-night stay. Additionally, the hotel's location was very convenient for me as it was only a 10-minute drive away from The Lighthouse Theatre, where I attended an orchestra performance on November 5th.
No negatives from this place.
We had a fantastic stay! The lady at check-in was lovely, welcoming, and very helpful.

None - overall, a pleasant stay.
The staff at the hotel were extremely polite and efficient. They were friendly and very accommodating, going above and beyond to help with our toddler's travel cot. The air conditioning in the room was a massive plus, and the curtains provided brilliant blackout. The bed was really comfy, and we appreciated that the room was located conveniently next to the lift and stairs. The parking was also really convenient and safe. The breakfast was brilliant, with a wide variety of hot and cold food options.
Nothing, it was perfect.
We had a good stay at this hotel. The room was clean and the staff were helpful and polite. The location was convenient for our visit to family in the area and it was close to the Lighthouse Concert Hall and The Lighthouse Arts Centre.
Nothing.
