City lights for a city night

A very cute little place to stay while attending spark arena, jumped on a scooter, which were always nearby, for easy travel. A car park is available under the building, which made things easier. Check out got a little muddled, needing key to get into the garage, but needing to leave it in the room, but all was sorted.

Convenient to CBD

Very happy with our stay. Room was as per website, comfy bed, convenient to CBD and served its purpose. The only thing was having to leave our keys in the room when departing (as instructed) which we couldn't as you need the swipe key to get down lift and through all doors. So we left it in the lockbox we got it out of at the dront entrance. Thinks this needs addressing.

CBD easy accommodation

We got contacted day of booking to say room was no longer available. Gave us another room then changed again. Went from room with view on 6th floor to ground floor where we had to keep blinds shut as people walk directly past bedroom with floor to ceiling class!!!
