My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but some aspects needed improvement. The service provided was friendly but had some shortcomings. The location was convenient for my plans, despite minor inconveniences. The dining offered a wide choice but lacked in some areas. Overall, a decent stay with room for enhancement.

The hotel staff's singing and music added a fun touch to my stay in a small but cozy room. The ensuite bathroom was spacious and well-equipped, perfect for a refreshing shower after a busy day. The service was top-notch, especially Matthew who was super nice and attentive. The location was convenient for our plans, despite the slightly run-down appearance. The dining experience offered a delicious buffet breakfast in a disorganized setting. Overall, a mix of highs and lows with a unique charm.

The hotel had good rooms, great service, a convenient location, but dining was not up to par. The eco-conscious mission of Ibis made the stay feel small for one person. I appreciated the efficiency and friendliness of the staff. The proximity to transport hubs was very convenient, although the surroundings felt a bit lacking. The dining experience left much to be desired with food not being kept hot enough.

The hotel had all the conveniences we needed, was clean, comfortable, and compact, with everything we needed available. It was quiet and within walking distance to the conference I was attending in the city, as well as close to a lovely walk along the harbor front in the morning. The only downsides were that the A/C wasn't working properly, and the bathroom door wouldn't shut.

The service was excellent during our stay. They even granted us free parking because we had to wait a couple of minutes for check-in. The staff were friendly and responsive to our needs.

The location suited me perfectly as it was easy to access the light rail and a short walk to 'Marketown' shops. It was also convenient for our visit and close to where we went out for dinner and drinks.
Dining

Dining at the hotel was fantastic quality, similar to Novotel's offerings, although with fewer options. The buffet breakfast was the best we had ever experienced, with everything from cereals to hot foods available. However, the start time was late, and there was no late room service for food.

The hotel facilities were great, offering amenities like room service, laundry, a welcome drink, tours/ticket assistance, and even a happy hour.
