Really liked our stay here. The property was very clean and well presented and the room we stayed in equally so. The bed was a bit firm however, prefer it medium/soft but would stay again and not let that put me off.

We ordered the king room, on arrival the bedroom itself was clean and well presented. However, the bed was uncomfortable and one side was on a lean so easy to roll out of bed. The bathroom, smelt, I couldnt put my finger on what it smelt like but definitely didnt smell clean. Overall, I'm glad I only stayed there one night.

We booked this hotel because it was close to the hospital my father was in for palliative care, he passed away a couple of hours after the booking. We contact the hotel and they were not sympathetic to what had happened and despite the fact we had not checked in they would not even look at a partial refund. We had only booked it a couple of hours before as we were from the country and my husband and children would need a place to stay if he had lived overnight.

I was in Room 121 which had a door between my room and the next room so I could hear their whole conversation etc late into the night. Also it sounds like there is no glass on the window the noise from the traffic was horrendous. I rang reception and requested to be moved and thankfully the helpful staff did move me to a much better room. No one should be allowed to stay room 121

I had a very cheap room without a window, I knew that when I booked so it was no surprise but it was somewhat claustraphobic and I would probably go for a room with a window next time. That said it was very quiet and dark so good for sleeping. The AC kept the room at a comfortable temperature and the shower was excelent, constant temperature and flow. Bed was firm. Overall the room was very clean. 950 metre walk to the National Theatre which puts this hotel in close proximity to that venue - that I was attending. There is under building car parking, some of the parking spaces are impossibly tight. The open air parking out the back is probably a better option for a medium to big car if the easy access spots are all gone.
