My partner and I both arrived quite late, but despite Tim being out, he was still super helpful with getting us checked in and making sure we were comfortable, and was extremely polite throughout our stay. The room was clean and tidy, and all of the services worked well. Would stay again!

Fantastic place it felt like staying with old mates. Social spaces are cleaned everyday and staff are super friendly. I ended up extending my stay because of how nice it was. The pool table and xbox was a massive bonus. They’re very welcoming to backpackers and those looking for a longer stay. 11/10 would recommend to a friend

For this property it is a cool and cheap place to stay if you are on a budget. But one thing that threw me off about the place was when I left to go out one day I left my suitcase in the room and when I returned later that day the door was open meaning anyone could walk in and take things from my suitcase. I’m going to guess that it was being cleaned and good thing nothing was taken and that I had my bag full of my more important things on me, but it made me see this property in a poor light.

I liked how everyone looked out for everyone. There was a airconditioning in the rooms and it was quite. Also bathroom was private even the unisex ones. Dislike tissues on the ground dirty bathroom with hair all around it.
