Nice heritage building, needs repair

Hotel itself had a great vibe. Nice restaurant on main floor. Our room was on the top floor and was not ready for guests. Found a previous guest’s sock on the floor. Room must have had water damage at some point and was still in process of being repaired. A first coat of drywall had been applied around the top of the attic wall and closet area, but hadn’t even been sanded yet. Likewise, the bathroom was incompletely renovated. On a positive note, we stayed two nights and the room was made up despite not expecting it.

Will return here again

Staff was exceptional, friendly, and kind. Room and hotel- immaculate. Bonus discount for food and wings are fantastic. Book for cleanliness and hospitality, not size of room.

I was concerned after I read some reviews (i.e., mouse), but luckily we didn’t see mice (or evidence of). Very convenient location - restaurant on main floor and a bar downstairs! We had a problem with our TV not working and sent a text message to the “super”… but no one responded. But not a big deal!

My wife could not use he lap top in the room, a staff member tried to help he took it out side the room and got it working but back in the room it did not work.

The air conditioner was there to blow air only! We arrived in the middle of the night and the room was HOTTT. Hoping to have at least a few hrs of sleep. It showed 25 degrees Celsius at one of the times I went to see if it really just didn’t work.

The Duckworth was an older building but the room was clean, spacious and nicely decorated. The location was good for walking to Jelly Bean Row, restaurants and pubs. Access to the George Street Festival was close by as well.

The room is very small and the bed was indented in the middle which caused you to roll to the centre. Also due to its closeness to pubs in the area it is extremely noisy to sleep. There was a dog barking for two hours from about 1 am to 3 am in the morning. The pub noise and people shouting stopped around 3:45 am. Would be ok to stay for an extreme discount but would not be paying much to stay here.
