Had everything you need if you wanted to prepare a meal or do laundry. If you are parking there beware that it is quite tight to get into. We had an 8 seater Kia and it was difficult getting in and out of the car park.

Zero complaints. Great central location, nice room, and good value. I would stay here again. The only issue I had was checking in on the weekend - the instructions weren’t clear and I had a wee struggle to find my way to reception.

This hotel is very convenient to the waterfront, cable car and shopping/restaurants. Everything is walkable. We had a studio room, and having the washer/dryer in the room was nice. With all that said, there is no lobby in this hotel, and “reception” is literally a desk on the 4th floor. You literally have to follow a two page set of instructions provided by the hotel in order to park and then find your way back to the hotel. It’s not easy. Lastly, by 3:30pm, our room still had not been made up. After calling the desk they did bring us fresh towels and emptied our garbage. The service could have been much better.

Great staff, very helpful and courteous. Room allocated was good size and comfortable bed. The 10am checkout these days is too early, expressly if you have a late afternoon flight to catch. Change it to the standard 11am checkout. Location is handy to public transport and city wide access to shopping and eateries.
