3 star hotel my a**. Straight out of a horror movie, it's most likely on the lower end of a 2 star rating. Restoration is needed, which will clearly never come. Between the carpet, the walls and the windows I don't know what was dirtier. However, the cleanliness of the ensuite bathroom was on point, as were the sheets.

You pay for the character and proximity to train station, Fed Square and South Bank. Although and experienced traveler, I was inclined to get off the streets by 8.30pm and felt safer back at the hotels restaurant/bar!

Not as Advertised

The room was nothing like the photo & i spoke to the manager who said it was just a guide photo. I then went on to say its very misleading. I should of listened to the comments as the location is great but the hotel is extremely tired and needs revamping.

As most other people who have reviewed this place have said it’s clean but old, staff are friendly if you just want a really cheap bed for the night in the middle of the city it’s great. If you want somewhere nice to stay I would pick somewhere else
