Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is centrally located, close to Queen Victoria Market and surrounded by restaurants. It offers clean and comfortable rooms, though in-housekeeping could be improved. The service was satisfactory, with laundry facilities available. The price is reasonable for the value provided.
The hotel is in a prime location, close to Queen Victoria Market and eateries. My room was cozy with a double bed made from two singles, offering a good night's sleep. The in-housekeeping service was efficient, but I overlooked trying the laundry service. The hot dogs at the dining venue were a pleasant surprise, although more variety would have been nice. The facilities were adequate, but not exceptional. The economical price adds value for budget travelers, making it a decent option for a short stay.
The hotel is conveniently located close to Queen Victoria Market and fantastic restaurants. The rooms are spacious and modern, perfect for relaxation. The service, though efficient, lacks laundry facilities. Overall, a great value for money stay with minor room keeping issue.
