8/10 Good
"This was the third time we have stayed at this Hotel as we love the Location and the price. The Breakfast this time was fabulous especially Tuesday to Thursday. On Friday I think there was a shift change and we noticed the difference. The Lobby, Mezzanine, Restaurant and Bar were Lovely and clean as were the Toilets on these levels. Staff were friendly and helpful. It was great to see the Bar open again during the week as when we were there in Jan 26 it was only open on Fridays and Saturdays. The Hotel rooms are dated and the room we were in this time could certainly use some attention but beds were comfortable."

"Great location in the heart of the CBD with easy access to transport options. I stay regularly for work and the rooms are always clean and tidy and check-in is easy. My last stay, the hairdryer was broken and there was no conditioner in the shower, but otherwise it was a comfortable stay."
