I was charged for the item from the minibar even though I declared at checkout to the reception guy that I hadn't consumed anything from minibar. But I have got still charged. Then accounts send me an invoice which I told them it's not correct and they should have not charge my credit card prior to informing me. Not a fair business practice. I haven't received a response from the accounts team regarding this disputed charge till now. It seems the minibar attendant may have mixed up my room with another as the room number does not match the invoice. The housekeeping team was not aware of which rooms are checked out, so I believe both teams need additional training. Specifically, the minibar attendant should be more careful in reporting, as I should not have been charged for items I did not consume.

We were kindly upgraded for our anniversary. The room was overlooking the RNA show grounds. The bed was comfy and room was nice. Pool was at a nice temp, but quite a lot smaller than it looked in photos. Unfortunately we weren’t able to get any sleep until 1am - the restaurants/bars below were blasting music. Staff offered us complimentary breakfast to make up for this.

Hotel was very nice. But I picked this hotel for the parking but it was full because it's also open to the public. I drove in, there was no space and tried to drive back out, I wasn't in there 2 minutes and it tried to charge me $35. Not good.

Won’t be staying here again
Hotel is in a good location, however what let it down is its customer service. Upon check-in we were told that we would get drink vouchers. After 15 minutes of waiting, we were told someone would bring them to our room. 2 days later we are still waiting Then in addition, we were out all afternoon and evening and come in at 12 o’clock at night and our room has still not been cleaned. Wet towels on the floor bed not made bins not empty. When we contacted reception at midnight twice to clean rooms, the response was yes and when we asked why house are not been clean no explanation was given. The morning at 11:15 which admitting late is 15 minutes after checkout we had a knock on the door from somebody it looked like they just come off the street to clear the rooms. When we caught the lift to go down Kurt in hospitality to make the guest get the lift first before the employee. This employee just pushed in front and got in the lift first. We will not be back.
