Great location and wonderful room

We had a large spacious suite with an extensive balcony area. The staff were very nice and an issue with a tripped fuse was fixed quickly. However over the six nights the room was serviced once and we had to ask for supplies.

Nice property. Our instructions were clear as we had a late arrival due to train delays. Room was clean and cool. The accommodation is close to the shops and a walking track that lead you to the Botanic Gardens. Great rooms, and rhe staff were lovely and helpful as we left our bags with reception after our checkout. Great place to stay and very welcoming city.

Will not stay again.

Booked a balcony room but was told i couldn't use c the balcony due to loose tiles. Doors were cable tied together but i did manage to open bedfoom door for some fresh air. Carpets dirty and disgusting. Mould on bedside lamp shades and blinds. General lack of care and maintenance.

Disliked: Cleanliness
I didn’t think to choose non smoking because I didn’t think any shared accommodation allowed it anymore. The floors were sticky, it wreaked, there was tar on almost every surface. It was a bit more run down than it looked on pics. Some of the kitchen utensils were old and scratched up. The service was friendly though and the building easy to access.
