A great stay! Comfy beds, good staff, close to things, only drawback is you're right in the center of the nightlife area so you can expect to hear music and drunkenness and random yelling late into the evening.

Jason, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great Hotel in a Great Location

The hotel is a short walk from the bus stop. It’s on a main road, so there are shops and restaurants all around it. I was able to check in early for a small fee (less than $20). The hotel rooms are nice and large enough to sort through my bags. The breakfast was delicious. The only negative is that you do have to walk up a few steps to get in to the hotel. I would definitely stay here again!
Katherine, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Loved the location in downtown. The bar next door did play live music late into the night so not ideal for sleeping early.
Dorothy, 1-night trip

Although the room was very small and the bathroom very tight it was clean and comfortable. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The location cannot be beat. Plenty of restaurants and shops and pubs right outside the door.
