Liked: Staff & service
Pros: very central, walk to dining options, woolworths, pharmacy & other shopping areas, hop on/off bus, good food & bar, iron & full size fridge. Cons: VERY LOUD (you will need ear plugs) the rooms are close to the bar which in my experience had 2 nights of live music. The room I was in also backed onto an alley which meant truck/vehicle noise.
