This hotel was just what I needed after traveling abroad and staying in hostels. A private room to myself with a big bed, tv and nice shower. I was able to check in early which is lovely. It was stupid that they make you pay to store your luggage, because I just sat in the lobby with it to avoid that and cluttered up their front space. Close to restaurants and grocery store.

We only stayed 1 night, value for money was great & it was close to lots of places to eat & Woolworths was across the road - little bit old / tired but for a short stay would definately recommend, they also did breakfast on the balcony for $10 which was great

Hides had an exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. You can order the continental breakfast there, or just sit on the veranda, eating your yogurt from woolies. Super walkable area.

Plz read whole review. This good aspects. On arrival at 4.50pm shocked no staff at reception esp with about 25 people noisily, but happily milling around. (On booking I hadn't realised hotel also had backpackers section. this could haattract or appeal to or not to some) but did know they would actually take out $100 deposit. Lift to room was small & shabby...and often crowded ( beyond limit?) My room was small but otherwise inside looked pleasant just like photo. It was very clean n contained all things expected, mostly in new/ newish condition . Bathroom was clean + okay, but unfortunately couldn't fit kettle under the tap to fill it directly. Plumbing was very loud & ongoing noise for hrs. King bed, TV, air con & fans were v good. Fridge was ok, but small freezer was disappointing. Safety DEP box? The room was accessed by a real key - perhaps an inside latch/ lock would give some people the extra ' impression' of security esp when people came past often speaking/ walking loudly along the very long narrow hallway. While the room looked fine, the large window had no view...at all...covered in heavy frosted glass.While it couldn't be opened it did feel like being locked in (with nice big curtains. The lack oThis should be mentioned in listing & hotel website- especially if only some or all rooms were same.
