We wanted a place to stay that was comfortable, but not upmarket. It was close to everything & suited our needs. It was clean, staff were friendly and we could cook meals when required. We were glad we chose The Met Hotel.

Disliked: Amenities
Definitely put a small fridge , a chair and a small table in each room , not a good idea sharing one fridge with 17 rooms . This would not cost much . At $70 a night , believe it or not it’s actually over priced for what you currently get. A room for a week should be no more than $250 at this premises . It’s an ok deal for someone who is on the dole or struggling , a lot better than the street . The manager / cleaner was very pleasant and helpful , the owners are lucky to have her .
