9/10 Wonderful! (424 reviews)
This is not downtown, but it is a good location that splits the difference between the airport and CBD. I walk, and it’s an easy (but longish) walk to the city center. Bus service is also frequent, and there is direct service to both the CBD and airport. It’s super clean, super quiet, and very comfy. It has a kitchenette. It’s overall a great spot.

Bed we’re Comfortable and room had good heating.
Room needs so work done to it. Especially bathroom no heater or fan. Had hole in wall by bath must of been flooded at some stage.
Bath needed cleaning before kids could use. Hair and dead ants in there.
