Loved it!

Loved everything about the hotel. The location, the vibes and the really friendly staff. I was also able to leave my suitcase there for a few nights before my stay which was so helpful. My room was ready early and I was allowed to check in. All in all a fantastic experience and I would definitely stay here again.

The room was clean and comfortable. Great location for a visit to the Enmore Theatre. Check in was quick and easy, as was parking. The website gives plenty of warning that you need to book ahead for parking, as it's limited. Our room faced onto Station Street, which probably made it a bit quieter. Would definitely stay here again.
