2. Weakness (which were easy to work around) include lack of free internet, we just went to their patron's lounge on the second floor where there is free WiFi; dining table that wasn't very stable, we were just careful; and a lack of towel bars and hooks in the bathroom (we are a family of 4 w/ 2 teenagers).

3. The only con's i would say is no free internet ( but managed to snag the signal from the hotel across the road so all good lol but in 2010 to charge for wireless is a bit much i mean even motel 8 gives it free!) plus as it is a all suite hotel there is no restaurant etc but there are piles of restaurants everywhere nearby if your lucky enough to get a room book it quick .
