Wotif address is incorrect, so I was dropped with 40kg of baggage a few hundred meters from the actual entrance. The place overall is good enough for the price if you need somewhere to rest your head, but my sheets weren’t clean, there were black spots and stains all over them and fake eyelashes literally everywhere, so I slept on my towels for the few hours I was there for before heading back to the airport.

The property was unique. It had no supplementary furniture. No toilet paper holder. No towel racks. No bedside tables. I did not get new soap for the week. I cleaned my own bins. I don’t believe I had a linen change.

The picture on wotif is misleading. It's from the main hotel but there's another building across a laneway which used to be 'Value Hotel' and is like the youth hostel opposite it. Rooms so minute it's difficult to get to the other side of the bed; bathroom so tiny only 1 person can be fit and still very squeezy; no table or chairs. Our complaint moved us to the main building, room a little bigger but the very last one next to the lane. Sleep was disturbed by the exit door to the lane and loud voices and loud car noises outside every night. Make sure you're booked in the main hotel on Smith St.

Clean and tidy. The smallest and most basic room I have ever stayed in. Too expensive for what it is, could have had similar experience at a back packers. Bring your own pillows. Recently stayed in a suite in Cable beach for the same price.

i liked the central location but that was all. When i arrived at 1:00am i discovered that the cold water tap in the shower did not work. When i reported this in the morning i was told that it could either be repaired during the day or i could move rooms. I could not move immediately though because they were fully booked. i asked if it could be repaired and could i be contacted when this was done so i could return to have a shower as i had been travelling for over 24 hours. I was not contacted during the day. When i returned in the afternoon i asked at reception if repairs had been done and i was told that the shower had been checked and that there was no problem found. Somewhat bewildered, i went to my room and got into the shower to discover that it was exactly the same as previously. The cold tap was turned full on and no water was coming out which i suspect was how i'd left it in the morning. I went back to reception and was offered no apology or any recompense and merely told that they could now change my room. The room i was moved to had large holes in the flyscreen and cigarettes butts on the inside window sill. if i had been staying in darwin longer i would have left then and there but as i was leaving the next morning i saw no point. i would definitely not recommend this dive.

La primera noche dormi solo una hora porque me pusieron en habitación que daba hacia las discotecas o bares de la Calle Michell y cerraban a las 4 am. Solicité el cambio de habitación. La segunda habitación no funcionaba el agua fría en la ducha por lo que no podías combinar y el agua caliente te abrasaba En fin no recomendable y para olvidar
