The King room I booked would have to be the smallest hotel room I have ever stayed in. It was cluttered with a round glass table in a corner that was near impossible to sit at as the bed was right behind it. There was a chair which you could sit at on the wall bench, so the table is unnecessary. There were renovations going on next to our room so a very strong smell off paint. I didn't book a river outlook room, so didn't expect anything spectacular, however our view was a white wall a few meters away, so very average. The Hotel location is great however with the trams out the front. The lift to go to the main entrance was dirty also.
