Great little stay with lovely service

Comfortable stay. Staff were super friendly and welcoming and went out of their way to make us feel at home! The room was very basic, I would probably expect a little more quality from a 4* hotel, however it was perfectly ok for us and our stay. I wasn’t a huge fan of paying $55 plus tax for valet parking for the night, which is literally just a tiny car park which, in my opinion doesn’t need valet and could quite easily park yourself. Very expensive parking for what it is.

So overall we enjoyed our stay. But the hotel has a few short comings. The rooms are very dated. The bathrooms need to be updated and there is no room to put toiletries or other personal items. There is a lot of noise from the streets and the
