Helpful staff, clean property. Good location - right by a number of bus routes into the city and to the airport, close to uni and shops - although this means it can be a little noisy for the front units.

We didn’t arrive until after 1am due to plane cancellations and delays. Greg was great with his communication with us throughout the day and gave us clear instructions to get our room key and made the room toasty warm for our arrival. It was so appreciated! The room was clean and tidy, the beds and pillows comfy and early check out was super easy. We would stay here again.
