Exactly as expected for the price, a clean, decent space in close proximity to Cuba street and other attractions. Convenient location to drive into, with decent paid parking.
A little worn around the edges. No sound-proofing and some noisy neighbours but not terrible.

The rooms were a generous size. The bed was large and comfortable. The location was good with an easy walk into town and plenty of good eateries close by.
Overall it is maybe a little old fashioned and could do with a tidy up and some new decor.

Location for us was great as we were going to the ferry the next morning which was only 10 min drive.
We were told we werenโt allowed to park on in the road side public parking. When asked why we were told because ยซย it wasnโt allowed because the hotel gets complaintsย ยป. There was also no one at reception at 7am when we left in the am to check out, which is fine but there was no return key box so we left the key on the desk.

We have always liked this hotel for its proximity to the CBD, and its prices have come down considerably. Quick and easy check-in.
Not a fan of the $25 per day parking charge, although I am aware that many hotels do likewise and often charge more. The room was very small, ok for one night though. Shower in bath, not a fan of that either. Blinds do not shut out the outside light very well. When room door is opened, bedside table is just 2-3 inches away. Looks like the bed has been moved to accommodate a second bedside table, and so one light switch is not easy to get to, being behind the bed.

We were able to store our luggage before our check in time. Staff was very nice and gave recommendations and helped accommodate our needs.
The lock on the bathroom door didnโt work. We did find a cockroach in our room. Some aspects of the hotel seemed outdated.

After we changed rooms there was more space and not the intoxicating smell of cleaning products.
Bed was comfy.
Location was good.
Relatively cheap.
First room had bad layout and intoxicating smell of cleaning products. Could not stay in that room.
2nd room ws better - but we later found fresh blood left on the toilet seat.

Bed comfortable and clean. It was surprisingly quiet once the evening traffic stopped.
The hotel is very rundown now. I used it as a venue many years ago for corporate workshops and it has changed a lot. Shower curtain didn't reach top of bath so floor completely flooded after a shower. Fixtures hanging off walls. Cupboard doors hanging at angles due to hinges needing adjusting. Carpets wrinkled and not flat to floor any more. Whole place needs a makeover. A hour or two of DIY maintenance would make the rooms way better. They are shabby.

The location is great, staff were friendly and helpful.
The street lights are visible and the blind doesnโt cover the window so the room is too light for sleeping. The fridge was very noisy, the lights and power switches werenโt easily accessible. But overall it meets the price you pay for it.

Good large sized bed. Staff were helpful as to what we could do to dispose of my husband's colostomy bags while we were there.
There was no electric blanket on the bed in the middle of winter. Had to ask for more blankets. Also got a heater.
No heating of any sort in the bathroom, no heated towel rail to help dry the towels. The step into the bath/shower was very deep and had to be very careful. Needed a hand rail on the wall to help with support so you didn't fall. Understood and was quite happy that our room would not be serviced for the 2 nights we were there, however we left the heater they gave us on while we went out for a while to keep the chill off the room, only to find that someone had been in our room while we were out and turned the heater off.

Was in a good place, we could walk everywhere we needed to go. Was clean and tidy. Staff that we did see were friendly. Great that it did have a bath as well as a shower over. Heater in room did a good job of keeping the room at a great temp.
Internet was terrible, would not work most of the time. TV would not work because of the internet. No fan in the bathroom and the window did not open so the steam could not get out. Left the bathroom extremely damp. We had to open the only window in the room to try to let some air in. Very high step into the bath for the shower, which was a slip hazard when getting out especially for shorter or elderly people. Hardly ever saw a staff member at reception, unless you stood there for a bit. Restaurant not open for breakfast. Was told it was only open for big groups. Parking for $25 per day is a bit rude. Most hotels have parking for guests.

I didn't like my room it wasn't clean properly and had the smell of a second hand shop the t.v was worse.I could only get two channels if I was lucky. The curtain was filthy I didn't know how to change from bath to shower I had to keep the heater on the whole time I was there because If I turned it off I would've being freezing in my room.

For an overnight budget type accommodation, this was good. Close, within walking distance, to restaurants. Basic room, but fine for the price.
I did not get the room I had booked and paid for, i.e. a king bed instead got 2 single beds. Not ideal when you are tall, but OK for just 1 night.

The dirtiest toilet ever โฆ a good 3cm of dried faecal matter seeping from under the rim of the toilet . . I had also been clear I was disabled but was allocated a shower over a bath with no bars to hold onto to get in and out or for safety in the shower.
Steps up from street on both sides of entrance โฆ ramp up one side would have been helpful for elderly or disabled people, or those with prams.
