Great place to stay for a night or 2. Close walking to Restaurants & bars. The place was clean, tidy & friendly staff.
Steve, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place!
Fabulous old building that’s now quirky and fun, in a steampunk kind of way. Just be warned, the lounge closes at 8pm and there's a bit of road noise, but otherwise highly recommended.

Great place.
Paul, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good but with limitations
When we checked-in we thought wow what an amazing hotel, that’s perfect in every way. However if you’re staying more than one night, be warned that our room had no storage space for clothes and only 2 clothes hangers. There’s one chair and no table, so for 2 people this could be an issue. The bar and lounge are sealed off from 8pm to 8am, so you can’t make use of these facilities in the evening.

Great Boutique Hotel
Lovely staff, clean hotel, very quirky, quiet rooms, glad we stayed here.
Deborah, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Worth a try!
Woman checking me in was stellar - the lobby fun and quirky as were the rooms. Breakfast was ok, no recycling offered, no organic options. All sweet options. Room was clean and fun, mattress felt lumpy and was saggy.

10/10 Exceptional

Although this property is very good and it has its own uniqueness, only thing is you can check in only after 2:00 pm. We went around 1:00 pm, no staff available, We have to come back after 2:00 pm.
