Amazing property. Lovely room, with mezzanine bedroom. We had an issue when the door from the pool stuck & we couldn't get anyone to respond for a while. Put us off going out there again.

The old hotel is awesome, I had a great room situated on the corner of the building. The staff were very friendly and helpful and made me feel welcome as soon as I walked in. The hand written note and chocolates on the table when I entered the room was a lovely surprise. I would definitely stay here again.

Surely This was not the property I had stayed at before! Thin sheets .. dirty vents. Curtains off their tracks.. and who the heck charges for a Nespresso coffee pod. No breakfasts… and the main foyer was like walking into a cheap self serve backpackers! Look I can’t fault the 2 team members who I saw .. they were polite. I went to the spa and was greeted by the thickest greasiest flick of what I assumed was skin .. ewwww… outta there! The entry to the hotel which the lovely garden pots.. full of cigarette butts. I was very disappointed. Will not return. Did not see one room service or maintenance service person.

For such a reasonable price, this hotel was located perfectly within walking distance to marvel stadium for a concert we were attending. It’s also very central and within walking distance to a lot of places we wanted to explore. Transportation was readily accessible, as well as lots of dining options located just up the road, open all hours. Staff were fantastic, extremely friendly and helpful, particularly Denis. We will definitely be back!

The staff were excellent and could not do enough to make my stay pleasant. The bed was super comfortable and overall the room was excellent. I particularly enjoyed the chocolates they left in my room upon arrival. The only down side was the the noise form the trams, however this subsided during the night so it was not really noticed.
