I like how the bedrooms where separated. You can do laundry. Do some cooking in the kitchen. Close to Queen Street, the shopping district. Restaurants where nearby and accessible. Over all I loved it.

Salt water pool!
Valet parking is expensive but safest under lock and key. There is a wilson garage across the street. The service is always good and you can't beat the location. The views from the upper floors are great. Make sure you check on beds because a single suite only sleeps 2.

Great stay, especially for a large group! We booked a 3 bedroom apartment, which were just 3 interconnecting rooms and had 2 fully equiped kitchens which were great as we travelled with 3 kids 2 & under and 6 adults. Valet parking was very convenient for us especially being in the cbd. Would definitely stay again!

Loved the room and the staff were awesome! Very professional. Positive, helpful- couldn’t ask for more! Location was hard to get to due to construction all around the city area- not the hotels fault- but it would be helpful for them to give customers a heads up about that 😁

What an awesome find! We found it hard to find accommodation that was both central and suitable for a family of 5. This was just perfect. Such a great location, within close proximity to everything you need. The staff were super friendly and accommodating and the room was spacious, clean and well equipped. The pool was an added bonus and the kids enjoyed their time in it. We had an awesome sleep on super comfy beds and there was even a portacot set up for the little one. Thanks so much. We will defiantely be staying again!
