The valet parking was a convenient and an easy option. The hotel location was fantastic being so close to the mall, shops and a chemist. We loved our meals that evening at the hotel restaurant. Our room was very solid and quiet, spacious and the bath towels were large and soft :) Can't wait to stay ...
