Kind and helpful desk staff. Nice breakfast choices. Bus 301 from Adelaide st stop 24 near the 7-11 and across from Chanel shopping drops off just above the hotel. Write it down because it is a steep uphill walk from Central Railway Station Too bad the staff does not know that. Helping people navigate the transportation is very important.

Room very small, bathroom was like it had been added on and no privacy with the glass screening. Beds were uncomfortable, however on a positive the breakfast was good. Would have liked to see parking included as I don't feel it was value for money when you added this on as well.

Nice room and lobby and nice staff was ok for one night but I won’t be staying again. Bed, very old and uncomfortable, linen, my sheets are better. Mini bar fridge needs serious fixing kept making very loud noises all night. The bottom of the shower curtain was brown around the whole edge. Like I said for one night it was ok. I’ve stayed at other holiday inn hotels and they have been great
