Heathers communication was great especially Friday being a public holiday, great instructions on how to get the key. Room great and clean, beds comfortable as well
Very clean, completely renovated rooms. Fantastic hot showers. Crisp sheets. Great dining options downstairs in hotel. Close to everything in the city centre. Great price. Would return here again.
Would not recomend this hotel , no lights on entrance stairs, 2 lights in room not working, staff very rude when I required about my security deposit re enburstment, cheep and nasty, plenty better places to stay for a little more money.
Excellent location to Center of town, short walk t
I found the staff very friendly and willing to assist at all times. The food menu in the hotel is varied and also to an excellent standard. Well worth eating there.
O hotel é anexo a um bar/restaurante e uma espécie de Cassino, que por aqui eles chamam de 'Pokies' e tem vários caça-níqueis. O check-in é feito no bar, inclusive, demoramos a entender que o hotel era ali mesmo. Para nós foi satisfatório, localização central e tarifa econômica. O quarto tinha uma boa cama e um bom banheiro. TV a cabo, geladeira (frigobar) e microondas. Atendeu nossas expectativas. É bem razoável.
Basic room that was good value for the money.
Comfortable mattress, clean linen, spotless shower and vanity sink.
Stayed a couple of days and the room was serviced every day.
Easy check in through the bar area.
You can check out early despite what other reviews indicate.

Centrally located close to everything..
Excellent value, meals were tasty and inexpensive,clean and tidy and accessible to most facilities...i'll be back!
Very cheap accommodation, but it shows. Room was tidy enough, however stains on sheets/carpet. Most lights didn't work (including fire escape) and tv remote had no batteries. It's okay if you're just looking for somewhere to sleep.
