Scenic Hotel Southern Cross
The gym is enough to get in a pretty good workout. Views are nice from there. Bathrooms are a little small but the room is nice. The staff was very nice. Walkable to many things. Definitely would stay or recommend to others. Beds were clean. Which is alway a priority for us.
