Home away from home!
I stay at the Lia frequently when I work
late or have an early start instead of driving home to the city. The couple who manage the hotel, Bhavesh and Riddhi are wonderful.
Both are friendly and professional. Upon arrival my paperwork is already for my signature and the room key is ready as well. I feel very welcomed each time I stay. The rooms are always clean and tidy. The staff does an amazing job to ensure the rooms are perfect.
I feel safe and comfortable. My home away from home! Highly recommend this hotel!

I was very impressed by their room options, particularly with what was basically like a having second room which was essentially a mini boardroom with big desk, 4 office chairs and a big wall mounted monitor in addition to the big bed and T.V. in the main room area which also had a lot of horizontal surfaces area to set stuff down on. I will definitely stay here again. Excellent, polite hosts.
