Great hotel for the cost. Really good location and the rooms are being upgraded. Only spent one night, but would stay longer next time.

They were doing some repair/renovation work during our stay which made the place look less attractive, but over all, a pleasant stay with helpful and accommodating staff.

Comfortable stay and great location.
Customer service was excellent. Convenient location for 15 min walk to cafes and shops in Brunswick. Property undergoing renovation but did not impact us. Bathroom had a shower in bath so not good for elderly or those with mobility issues. This may change after reno. Easy parking.

It was a beautiful stay in the hotel. Not as posh but overall comfortable. Their double beds are huge and for a family of four, there's more than enough room for us.

Smoking area adjacent to reception was disgusting, and the pool was filthy, as was most of the property. Won’t stay again

Look around at other places to stay first
For the price not the best to stay at. Could get a lot better at other places. Was doing Reno’s which they should email to tell you before staying. Room was tiny for a family

Currently undergoing renovation. It is an old property that is run down and in need of maintenance. A lot of rubbish around the common areas and construction noise during the day.

Poor standard of accommodation
The room was in a poor state of decor. You could hear all the noises from other rooms. Bed was 2 beds pushed together and as the floor was not carpet the beds moved across the floors. There was zero support in the bed.

Weekend away
In the process of renovation and re painting while we were there but the price reflected this.
Amazing location with trams right out front and safe parking.
