I had a comfortable 3-night stay at this hotel. The room was clean and quiet, and the staff were very friendly, especially Jennifer. It’s so close to Southern Cross that I could go everywhere easily. Would definitely stay here again!

Very comfortable and quiet. The upgrade was unexpected but very nice indeed. Complementary breakfast and wine made it a great stay. Did not like the parking station! Tiny spaces and difficult access. It was the one negative for us.
