Was really pleasantly surprised at how good the room was for a pub room. The bathroom was very modern, the room was comfortable and the staff were amazing. Would definitely stay again. My only one thing was there was what sounded like a fan that ran outside somewhere overnight so for light sleepers it may irriate light sleepers, but it didn't bother me.

Liked: Cleanliness
I liked the location for easy access, free parking, security to the accommodation and the rainfall shower but that was about it. The room tiny. The ventilation didnt work in the shower. The fan was weak and covered in dust. The accommodation area had a smell to it. I could continually hear a split system or similar right outside our small window. The ladies at the restaurant were so unwelcoming on 2 occasions we tried to enter for a drink.

Although compact, the room was very comfortable and quiet. The only thing I didn’t like was the step down when leaving the bathroom. It was a bit unexpected.

Decent location, not a long walk from the CBD or Salamanca Place, with supermarkets and other shops close by if you need to buy anything. The restaurant downstairs was also great and we had an excellent meal there. The mini fridge in the room was also very handy. Just some complaints, the bed and pillows were too soft for our liking. As for the bathroom, the sink tap was wobbly (almost like it was about to come off) and we didn't really like the rainfall shower head. Everything else worked just fine though and we had an overall pleasant stay.
