My organization has used the hotel for events for years! The events team's support is top notch. Whether it is a small meeting or a lunch for seventy people, the staff provides professional support. Function rooms are great and the restaurant always provides high quality food. Anna and Francesca offer particular support!

The location proved convenient for my needs.
The cleanliness was REALLY questionable. I found some hairs in the bathroom. The room looked a bit dated, too. The hallway carpet looked very worn, so the hotel needs some maintenance.
