Good place to stay, bit of walk down to the shops but no big deal. All modern and comfortable. Only one gripe (and i'm being picky) is that there is lamp on the LH bedside but no way to plug it or a phone charger in.

Booked a secured underground carpark, was told upon check in that carparks had been booked out for a week and we would have to wait until someone left and park in one of the 15 provided street parks which meant sitting on the road for 45 minutes. We ended up parking 2 blocks away and having to move the car at 1am.

We do always recommend calling the hotel directly to confirm we have parking available as we do have very limited spots in our underground car park. We hope to Welcome you back back in the future

Terrible!
We booked through hotels.com. We had correspondence with the property via email as well as through hotels.com to organise a car park, check in times, etc. hotels.com “guaranteed” our booking. After a 2 hour drive with a 7 week old baby, on arrival they had no record of the booking, said because i booked through a third party website it was never going to be a guaranteed booking, they had no availability and couldn’t do anything. When shown the email sent from their hotel reception address, which they confirmed was definitely their email address, they said hotels.com must have sent it because they didn’t. They blamed it on a scam and said the phone call didn’t come from them, even with being their phone number listed on their business cards. Either a very clever scam with access to the properties email address and phone number and therefor not secure, or made a mistake and had no intention of admitting it.

Upon further investigation we have found a system error and this booking dropped out of our system for reason unknow to us. This can occur with third party bookings. We do always advise booking direct with the hotel to avoid confusion. We would like to welcoming you back to the hotel in the future.

Easy check in/out with very friendly concierge. Property is well appointed with easy access to local amenities such as restaurants, shops, public transport, hospitals etc. Unit was clean with a comfortable bed. Limited bathing products so it was good I brought my own. There was a hairdryer. Traffic noise can be an issue particularly from ambulance sirens due to the property’s locale. Overall enjoyed my stay. Would highly recommend and will come back.
