What guests think

Several reviews note dated furnishings, tired curtains or carpets, and minor maintenance issues like stiff taps, leaky fixtures, or showers needing attention. Noise can intrude from construction, street activity, or other residents, and some hallways carry strong cooking smells. Onsite parking is available but described as tight, and fees apply for some stays. A practical choice for short city stays.

1. Free parking on site. 2. Free upgraded to a 2-bedroom apartment. 3. Apartment looking a bit tired but well equipped. 4. Our lounge looking right into an office building! No sun. ☹️ 5. The main bed room has a lovely corner window looking at War Memorial. 👍 6. A small convenience store few metres away. 6. Lots foid options about 2 blocks away. 7. Generally quiet with a few car/bike loud noises every now and then. 8. The reception lady is very efficient and welcoming.

Property amenities need a refresh (such as carpet, bathrooms, decent sound proofing) and noisy construction opposite the hotel, early in the morning. Good for a cheap and quick stay only.

Very comfortable bed, reasonably cumfy sofa, spotlessly clean, spacious accommodation and the location is excellent. A couple of little niggles - the bathroom taps were very hard to turn off, and the switch to move the shower water from the tap to the shower had to be pushed really hard to keep the shower running. We'll happily stay here again.

Many praise the spacious layouts and comfortable beds. Several note dated decor, some noise or privacy issues, and limitations like basic TVs or air-con not cooling bedrooms well.

Stayed 1 night

The room was big but a lot of wasted space where the desk is. Both the bedroom and bathroom could have been made bigger and the desk area removed. The split system air con in the room is not practical, it cools down the lounge but the bedroom remains hot and stuffy, and you can’t open the bedroom window unless you want flys or insects flying in as there is no fly screen. You are given like 20 coffee sachets in the room and only enough milk for 1 coffee each. Having to pay for parking on top of paying for your room is ridiculous, and there is limited parking spots on each level for guest parking.

Front desk staff were excellent. Being able to book a quick arriving taxi at front desk was great. The mirror glass on the building across lane meant people in surrounding rooms could see into your room and vice versa, especially at night with lights on, so you had to close curtains.

Picking a hotel room off a website can be hit and miss but this hotel was a great find. Location is excellent either driving, walking or using public transport. The room was spacious with a tv in the lounge room and the bedroom. Good Communication made our after hours check in seamless.
