“Ideal location”
We arrived late staff were very helpful there is no lift but our very heavy bags were carried up to our room for us. Room was clean and comfortable. The location was amazing. Close to the Town Hall Tram, Woolworths and plenty of restaurants and shops. If you enjoy walking its ideal location. I had had abit of a disaster on day of booking out but the boss and staff were so helpful and understanding. Would definitely stay again.
