The staff were all friendly, helpful and happy to chat about the history of the old building. The pricing was very reasonable at $255 for two nights. The room was very spacious. I would certainly stay there again.

Stay away from this place! Not as on pictures - quite dated and poor place Room is dated and not in best condition, bathroom is like from 70ies, when raised it with reception they said it is an oldest room and no other option available. Also had to put drunk teenagers to sleep at midnight as they were noisy. And guess what I got from reception or management- nothing. Avoid this place at all costs.

We had a room on the second floor which has been recently renovated. Apart from the landing area from the lift which is still being finished, the hallway and room was lovely. The bed was a bit lumpy. But our room was great, clean, modern and quiet. Very good value for money, and nice downtown location, easy walk to cafes. Because there is a bar on the street level, there were a few folks about on the street who had clearly over overindulged. But they were harmless. Overall very pleased with our stay and would recommend.

Gorgeous older hotel handy to many amenities. Walking distance to shopping. 3 star property that was better than a lot of other similarly rated properties. Recent refurbishment of rooms. Staff friendly and accomodating. No issue with arranging late check out for us for our day of departure.

Staff were very accommodating, allowing me to change my booking date after a late change to a business meeting and allowed me to continue using the carpark for that business meeting after I had check out. The hotel appears to be part way through a renovation. The ensuite was very dated but it was nice and clean with a nice hot shower. I will stay there again.
