The lady at check in was brilliant. Super friendly and incredibly efficient. She handled everything so quickly!
The room is nice and they’ve made every effort to make it comfortable. The floors and walls are paper thin so you hear every movement and sound around you.
But the bed is very comfy, the shower is good and the staff are friendly. The location is great too - a short walk from Southern Cross Station.
Room was very clean and bed very comfortable.
Older building being renovated yo high standard, so building has its own character.
Great standard for the cost.
Location was very walkable to great food spots and city adventures.
Very nice hotel. Lots of amenities- safe in the room, iron, tea/coffee with fresh milk. Breakfast was very good and can be added for a small cost.
Very reasonably priced hotel in the CBD 20 minutes form the airport
Great accomodation if you are just looking for a bed for the night in an ideal location to town! Tried to check in early, but couldn’t until 2pm which was fine. Stuff were a bit flustered and weren’t all that welcoming. However, good stay overall
Great location, used offsite parking within 700 meters, had to park a campervan $10.00/day (weekend rates). Walking distance to water front and Queen Victoria Market plus good area for eating options.

Liked: Cleanliness
For the price the hotel was great, clean rooms and plenty of towels and toiletries. Rooms bit dated and new lift recently installed which still had the tape on. For a short stay it is quite sufficient.
Room much smaller than advertised with huge bed and not much room for anything else. Walls are paper thin so if you get noisy neighbours or street traffic it won't be good. But a clean and functional family run hotel where you are left alone. Water pressure and temperature in old shower was surprisingly good.

Good location, no close parking though. Room was clean and staff were nice. Terrible shower with hardly any pressure, tap spurted out everywhere in the sink which made using it really hard. No where to fill up a water bottle and no water in the fridge. Comfortable bed though. All in all not too bad for what we needed but do not expect a fancy room at all.
