I stayed here for 3 nights last February, and every morning they made a point of saying that to choose hot buffet there should be a charge of $10....but then said ''but that's ok, enjoy your breakfast''

Generally I liked the hotel, I got upgraded to a lakeview room (slightly obstructed by buildings) and there was a bar of chocolate and small bottle of red wine in the room. The balcony is tiny, and only good for standing.

I liked the location too. Away from things a bit, which I enjoyed, and I was able to walk to the airport which was great.
