This is a nice hotel for the price. Spacious and modern rooms with comfortable bed. Hotel also has convenient amenities like laundry machines. The only slight downside is the street it's on is quite busy and noisy, without much in the way of places to eat etc., but this isn't a big issue if you have a car.

Super informed staff helping not only with hotel related services but also providing easy pointers and access to local activities and attractions. Pretty easy access to major hubs both by transport and on foot as everything is relatively closeby.Would have planned to stay longer knowing how confortable everything was.

On arrival to our room there was no extra bed as paid for, we were not advised that there was no buffet breakfast. Instead given a voucher for a cafe for $20 each. There were only 3 things on the menu for $20 so had to pay extra. Also the room was not clean and full of mould, just yuck!

From when I arrived, the friendliness and welcoming nature of the staff was apparent, they could not do more for me, it was just fantastic, then when I went up to the room, the room was also so beautiful presented. Bathroom is modern, rainwater showerhead was great, the balcony was well used and appreciated, and the king size bed was luxurious. Thank you for making my stay so wonderful, I had a great time.
