Rubbish bin room
Omg had a room outside of a truck loading bin so 2am, 4am and 7am the truck reversed and dumped rubbish into a bin metal bin. The beds were two singles pushed together and were hard the floor was probably softer

The front staff member was very sexist and didn’t understand how a bond worked. He stated that my wife needed her husband as woman can’t park in their car park. He said the $150 bond would only have $130 returned in check out. Terrible!

4 nights at the VR Hotel Hamilton
My bed was made with a pillow inside, my toilet roll holder fell off twice, my toilet chain inside the tank came loose once, I had to duck to shower under the low shower rose, the list goes on, it’s a spacious hotel in a great location but it needs a boost.

The Beds offered a good nights rest (clean and comfortable). The Hotel is a bit run down - Has seen better days. Has dedicated parking - $20 for our 1 night stay. Booked Expedia for 3 people - only one queen bed in room!, paid extra for another room with and extra single bed which was a bit disappointing.

The size of the room was very spacious and great for a family of 4. The location is very central and close to all amenities. Great nostalgia and character. Spa bath and shower worked well. Could have done with a little more cutlery but overall good value for money.

We have stayed here many times it is very central close to all restaurants, bars and shopping, there is parking for $20 for the stay which is very convenient because there is a parking meter charge on Saturdays in city. Don’t expect 4 star but it suits our needs and the staff are very helpful. Gail.

I was booked in for 7 nights and stayed for 2. The accommodation is run down, the rooms are dingy and had an unpleasant odour. The walls were like paper and you could hear the people in the room next to you. Consider booking elsewhere.
