Uncomfortable bed and the sheets kept coming off mattress. Our room was at the back of the building in a dark corridor accessed only via a number of twists and turns down other corridors. The ceiling was peeling, the carpet stained and the room overall very tired.

Budget usually means no frills and basic .. NOT .. wallpaper peeling off walls, filthy marks all over walls, taps that were worn through chrome to be more brassy looking, paintwork chipped very extensively, no blinds or curtains in bathroom window with buildings directly opposite!! Really very disappointed. Very very scruffy room!!

Good one night stay.
Very happy with choice. Friendly staff, good wifi and good location. Only had light dinner but was excellent. Yes the carpets in the corridor need replacing , and the tv in the rooms are small but I found the hotel has an incredibly relaxing ambience that I cant explain, it made wish I was staying for another night !

Liked that it was Military themed and Used by Veterans for Re-Unions, Parties, and Veterans Outreach Centre. Did not like when booking out Asylum Seekers being booked in to Military Themed and Use by Veterans Hotel I thought this was an inappropiate place to be used for Asylum Seekers.

Disappointed
Not a great room. Wallpaper was peeling, carpet was very dirty. The room was very dated. There was a horrible musty smell in the room. We asked for a refurbished room but were told we had booked a budget room and this is what we got!!! The price was not reflective of a budget hotel. We would not stay here again. The only good thing about our stay was the fantastic meal we had at the steakhouse which was a 5 minute walk away.
