Comfy & quiet stay

I stayed in a deluxe en-suite room here but there’s a mix from dorms to shared facility singles so a good mix of people here. Room was very comfortable with simple heating settings. Nice and quiet beside the Gardens and Arts Centre, but just a short work into town for Riverside Market, etc. WiFi was a little spotty ar times though.

They gave me their most sought out suite - which was a lovely surprise as it came with a private balcony. I had an amazing view over the Botanical Gardens which were beautiful to walk in after an amazing dinner (tuscan chicken) in their dining room. I had free street parking for one of the nights. Staff were so helpful and it all supports a good cause.

Nice hotel in a good location. Noisy at night. No air conditioning and it was so hot I had a terrible sleep. When I told the staff at checkout they shrugged and said I should have asked for a fan in the middle of the night. Hopeless!
