Great Location and Spacious Rooms!

central locationhelpful staffmissing amenities
The room size was good with everything I needed. The location was central. I could walk anywhere I wanted to go. I really liked that the price was reasonable (a big plus for a central spot!). The staff were helpful.
I found the absence of certain amenities a slight inconvenience. I expected items like shaving cream and toothpaste to be available in the room. At least toothpaste would be great for travellers who forget theirs.

The hotel is conveniently located near food outlets and shops. A nearby tram line offers easy access to various attractions. Public transport is readily available.
Dining

Many options for dinner are available and all are close by. Guests can select from different cuisine, like chinese food (some restaurants are near the hotel) or western choices.
Location

The location is very convenient and close to Chinatown. It is a two-minute walk to Tumbalong Park. The hotel is located in the heart of the city, so you can practice running in the morning.

The room was spacious with a nice big balcony. The bathroom was also quite spacious with a big shower. The bed was comfortable and the inclusion of an iron and ironing board was a bonus.

Spacious Apartment Close to Everything

convenient locationregular apartmentlarge balconyfriendly team
I found the location convenient to everything. The room felt more like a regular apartment. It featured a large balcony a feature I liked. I also appreciated the helpful and friendly reception team.
Water pressure in the shower was a bit weak. This was however only a minor issue.
