The Ryanair of hotels. Budget option.
I recently stayed 3 nights here with my sister. We stayed in a twin room. We picked it because it was a budget option and we would be busy all day and it would just be a bed for the night. If I was looking for somewhere that I would be hanging around during the day, I would not stay here. The positives: free parking at the hotel and we never had an issue finding a space. Location, very close to the esplanade for a lovely morning walk. Beds were surprisingly comfy. Air conditioning worked well (single unit per room in case you have any covid concerns about ducted systems). Reception staff were helpful and friendly. Nice large fridge in room (no freezer compartment FYI) The negatives: the place is just very tired. The bathroom was a bit dank and there was very little space to put your items in the bathroom. Trying to get the temperature right of the shower was difficult (albeit good pressure). Ants everywhere. Rubbish not collected when left outside room. The sound from outside was so loud - it felt like there weren’t actually any windows there! (The windows definitely weren’t open, I checked). Noise from adjacent rooms were also really audible. Blankets in the cupboard for the bed. Not entirely sure if these are laundered in between guests… I appreciate it’s a budget hotel but everything was an add on. Pool towel, that’ll be $2 please. You want a coffee in the morning. $4 for a pod please.

Comfortable and spacious room
The room is bright and spacious. The bed and pillow are very comfortable. The location is right in the city centre, easily walkable to restaurants and shops. Everything is excellent except the bathroom which doesn’t have an exhaust fan. The bathroom gets very misty and the ongoing moisture has caused mould around the built-in wardrobe
