Liked: Cleanliness
Helpful staff. Queen room was very basic, bed comfortable. The TV should be on an arm so you could actually watch it when in bed. Terrible shower, a triangle shape, if you move the shower head to the area with space to stand you drench the floor. I think it was overpriced for what it is.

The room and bed was really nice. Only criticism is the noise transfer from the above room into the lower room. We were in a bottom room and could hear the kids jumping around in the room above us. I’d recommend staying in an upper room which I’m sure would be lovely all round. Great location with Cataract Gorge walk within 5 minutes and city centre 10 minutes walk.

We were arriving after hours, Leanne gave me clear and helpful instructions to retrieve key from safety deposit box , and have the taxi wait to drive us the further 200 metres to our room. Since it was dark and pouring with rain on arrival, we really appreciated this information and easily found our room which was warm, comfortable , clean and spacious
