Room was very expensive and extremely poor value for money. It did not look like at all like the images presented online. The bathroom was really dated, tiny, unrenovated and could only be described as basic at best. There was no cleaning serice for our 2 night stay. It was in the midst of a major renovation.

The fire sprinkler leaked during the night soaking the top half of the bed, construction started nextdoor at 7am with loud jack-hammering and the TV connection stopped working at night. Was very expensive on that particular night, and was the worst hotel experience I have had to date.

Friendly staff and very helpful, carried our bags up the stairs when the lift wasn’t big enough for us and them! Bed extremely comfortable (firm) but pillows a bit hard. Spotless rooms and quirky decor. If you love peace and quiet though bring your earplugs as hotel has music and is open until 3am

I enjoyed my stay - live music and dancing in the hotel and vibrant nightlife all around. Actual room was sub-par (on previous occasions, it has been much better). Bathroom tiles were literally mouldy on both walls and floor. Window sash was broken so almost took my head off when I opened it and it crashed shut. Shower was very hard to get right - boiling or freezing and wouldn't stay at set temp. while water pressure was really poor. Otherwise great. Comfy bed, pleasant staff, great food.

Really friendly staff and great location. I expected it to be noisy being above the pub, but actually the noise levels were minimal. But there were maintenance issues with the rooms - bathrooms felt very tired and in need of refurbishment or deep cleaning; fridges and air con were noisy; rooms overall felt unclean. Room cleaning was an issue - for 3 days no rubbish was removed, and no toilet paper / toiletries replenished. At the end of the day this is affordable pub accommodation, but if you're going to position yourself as elevated pub accommodation then you need to be addressing these things.

Unfortunately, the room had a strong chemical odor (new carpeting I was told put in during the pandemic) and was also musty/mildewy. Left the following morning physically ill. The manager on duty tried to help, but he had no real options. If you have any sort of allergies, this is not the place for you.

Great location and cool bar downstairs, unfortunately everything else was a shambles. Sound travelled through the rooms so if you are staying on Fridays or Saturdays, dont expect to sleep until 2am. (No mention on Expedia listing of late night club). The room was dusty and dated, bathroom drain a little smelly. Possibly preference but bed was uncomfortable, to soft with no support. No duvet cover, only sheets around the duvet which wasnt clean. I don't expect much for budget but this place didnt get any of the essentials right. Wouldn't stay again and personally think the rooms are not fit for purpose on club nights. Note: cant fault staff, they were all friendly and respectful.

Stayed in room 216 which has a loft-style layout but with a winding and narrow wooden staircase. I'm unsure why I was allocated this room when it seemed like the majority of other rooms were vacant. There's no water connection upstairs, you need to trek up and down the staircase just to fill the kettle. The worst thing about the stay was how many things didn't work or weren't provided. I wasn't given bath towels, only a hand towel to dry myself with. There weren't any hotel staff clocked on when I discovered this at 8am. After an earlier check in during daylight hours, I arrived back at my hotel late at night to find out that the upstairs ceiling lights don't work. The two lamps in the room didn't work either. Decided to turn on the TV for background light, it also didn't work despite changing the cord on different power outlets. I had to use my phone torch to go up and down the dodgy stairs to the toilet in the middle of the night. I gave up and tried to get some sleep instead, only to discover I didn't have pillow cases. Just 4 pillows with the pillow protector slips on them. Checked out the following morning at 8.30am to find the pub still shut up and in pitch black darkness. No one at the reception desk to hand my key back in, not a soul in sight. So I paid $240 a night for a room that didn't provide half the bedding, towels, a working TV, any working lamps, or any working lights.
