Nice but noisy.
Really nice little apartment. Excellent facilities and great location. Just don’t expect a lie in. Walls are paper thin and all you can hear all morning from very early is doors banging every 10 minutes.

Weekend away
A great stay & good location. We normally stay at Native, so this was a good alternative. Great having a washing machine & tablets included. Staff all very friendly & helpful. Would have like to be able to check-in before 4pm. This is very late, especially for a weekend away. Also the bed was just a double (1-bed suite) & I would expect a King or Super king.

Great location, venue and facilities. Staff were superb. Felt like kitchen area was a little dark but as we only stayed for one night it wasn’t an issue so didn’t follow it up.

We really like our stay at the hotel but didn’t really like the kitchen area in the room and dining table. We didn’t really like that whilst laying in bed you could see the kitchen. Our room also overlooked a car park which isn’t the greatest view. In saying that, I would stay here again, but in a different layout room like our friend’s room, where the kitchen is in the entrance, not the main part of the room. The hotel staff were 10/10 and the hotel has a really nice, cool, stylish vibe.

The Whitworth Locke was in a fabulous location and looks stunning. Luckily we bumped into a helpful member of staff who directed us to the right entrance. The room was incredibly spacious and loved the kitchenette area. We will definitely be staying again but with our dog next time!!

I love renovated industrial properties, and this one was really well done. We had a small apartment that was perfect for our group of 3. The neighborhood was really fun and it was easy to walk all over downtown and even out to the concert venue. On to the not so great part. Our flight was delayed and I sent the property a message through our booking site letting them know of the long delay. I also pre-registered through the link the property sent me, so they knew we would be arriving. Still, when we arrived, the staff person blocked our entrance into the building at first and was very annoyed that we were there. For some reason, he had to check us in again even though I had already done that. Besides that, the atrium lobby is heavily scented, so I had to hold my breath through there. And our shower did not work correctly and was not fixed when we reported it.

Nice, clean, and centrally situated.
It was perfect for my trip, hey you have 12 hangers, and most of the hotels you stay at will give you 5 or 6 and you struggle to figure out how to hang your clothes, it was a nice hotel with friendly staff, it is located close to tram and train station, very convenient, thank you!

ONLY caveat is the parking situation. What you save on the room will cost you in the parking lot you have to pay for around the corner. DO NOT park at the parking lot listed here on Expedia. It is an uphill hike for a couple blocks. There is a NCP parking lot right around the corner. It's a little pricier, but it saves you the hike to the hotel. The apartment rooms are wonderful. It was nice to be able cook in the room and to bring back leftovers from O'Sheas which has great pub food one block away.
