I woke up to a beautiful sunrise in the fantastic, clean, quiet, and well-maintained rooms. However, the furniture was very worn and there was a daily fee for parking. The location is excellent, close to great eateries, but the dining experience was disappointing for the price. The facilities were adequate but could be improved.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of high-tech room features with a stunning view of Parliament House and Black Mountain. Despite the lack of room cleaning on a Saturday, coming back tired from an event, the room was still very comfortable.

I loved the hi-tech features in the room, but it would have been helpful to have a demo on how to use them. The view of Parliament House and Black Mountain was amazing, but the room was not made up on a Saturday after a long day.
