Our stay was really awesome, the staff are lovely to deal with and helpful and the rooms have a great layout.

Great location laneway behind a little noisy ”

On check in we had difficulty booking and paying for parking, however this was just days after their new online booking had gone live, parking was supplied for free which we really appreciated. The room was clean and well appointed. The only bad thing is that the room backed onto a back laneway and delivery trucks started to arrive and were left idling from about 5am. Great location close to restaurants and bars.
