Reasonably basic hotel, showing its age. They are doing some renovations, which may assist. I had very little interaction with staff, so have no real basis to comment on them. The bed(s) - a king made up of two singles pushed together - was not great. Given there were two mattresses, it was always going to be a bad start for comfort and just no support. The shower is tiny - I am not a big person and I just fit into it. Still, great location on George Street, not far from the western end of Queen Street Mall, the new casino precinct, a short walk to Southbank and other attractions. About 15 mins walk to the centre of the CBD and plenty of electric scooters around to hire.

I didn't like anything about this place. It is extremely dated and smelly and is in desperate need of a huge investment to upgrade it. The bed looked ancient and uncomfortable, the room smelly musty and mouldy. Thick dust on the wooden trim and pictures, It had a horrible feel to it. The communal areas were dated and under construction and just blink. Horrible, horrible, horrible - never again. I was promised a refund but it never happened. So disappointing

I was unable to attend due to the cyclone, so I can not rate higher than one star. This hotel also does not give refunds if you are unable to stay due to something out of your control.

The stay here was a mixed experience, but ultimately not a great one. Firstly the good stuff. The location is excellent – directly opposite the new casino. Easy walk to everything in the city. The parking was easy and convenient, although there are a very limited number of spaces. The rooms were old school spacious, extremely clean (if anything the smell of bleach was a little too overwhelming), and had everything we needed for a short stay. However, there was one big issue. As you will read in other reviews, there is construction taking place while they renovate the rooms. We woke at exactly 7am with jackhammering taking place not only in the room on one side of us, but also on the other side too. I really couldn’t believe that they thought it was acceptable to sell a room wedged between two construction sites. The noise was so unbearable we decided to leave as quickly as we could. On the lift ride downstairs, as it stopped at other floors, it was obvious the same situation was taking place throughout the hotel, and not just on our floor. I know we didn’t pay a lot for the room compared to other CBD hotels, but I don’t think that was enough to compensate for the situation we faced. For this reason, I give it a poor review overall.
