It really is a nice property. We had issues checking in with our room and found a live mouse. The night supervisor at the time was not very good at handling the situation and actually threw the blame our way and expected to us to dispose of the mouse.

A little outdated and overpriced
Room had some condition issues, including large black streaks on rug and thin lumpy duvet, with insert sliding all to one side. Bathroom door stuck. Mini fridge not plugged in. Had to crawl under desk and disconnect electric pot to find an outlet. Water bottles not refreshed in fridge. No lobby to wait for room in. While waiting 6 hours, no offer of even a bottle of water. No concierge.

This is very nice hotel, conveniently located a couple of blocks from George St and the so-called New Town. Rooms are in top condition, clean, my room had a jacuzzi. Very nice taste in decoration. Only two observations: the volume of water in the shower was really low and variable, as well as the temp (in a moment you passed from a trickle of cool water to a normal flow of very hot water. Also, the bed could have been softer.

Was not made aware until I arrived that the hotel did not offer room service or food apart from breakfast, despite being advertised as otherwise. Be aware the property has lots of stairs, no lifts and staff do not offer to help with luggage all in all not very luxurious.

Stopped in room 613 for 1 night with my family, the room itself was nice and so was the bathroom. Unfortunately the bed was so hard it was a terrible nights sleep and the pull out sofa bed was so bad that in the end we pulled the mattress off and put it on the floor which was marginally better. I do not believe that this room should be advertised as sleeps 4 due to the poor quality of the pull out bed. I have given the rating as average and not worse due to the helpful staff but unfortunately would not consider going back.

Uncomfortable hotel
Booked a stay for wife and I along with our two kids. They put us in a one room with a pull out sofa beds the kids had to share. Both the bed and sofa bed were extremely uncomfortable. Dust on the shades, water stain in the ceiling and not very helpful in addressing our concerns. I wanted to cancel our second night because it was so bad and they wouldn’t give us a refund. It was only until hotels.com got involved when they canceled it for us.
