This is a great spot to HQ a trip to Canberra. Great price, has a pool and the rooms are comfortable and quiet. Thought we were going to be too far from the CBD. However, its an easy few minutes by car and nice to retreat to some quiet after some full days around town.

The TV had a mind of its own. Some of the lights in the room did not work and the door klatch to the bathroom needs some attention.

Bathroom had a 70s vibe to it but was the cleanest I have ever seen, no mould whatsoever, well done. The draws and cupboards need that silicone padding to absorb noise or some other soft closing mechanism, cheap to implement. The windows are very thin and a lot of noise comes through from the road despite hotel in quiet part of town, expensive to implement. Everything else was excellent.

This is a great hotel to stop at or to spend time in Canberra. It has a nice reception - we had a good size bedroom with queen bed, lounge and coffee table and a really decent size tv. Plus we had a nice view of the pool. Perfect.
