I was disappointed and very unhappy with the service of the room. The fridge had not been turned on and the packs had melted and there was water pooled everywhere which I had to use a towel to clean up. The toilet did not flush properly. The half button was pushed right in and wouldnt move while the full button when pushed would get stuck and constantly flush. Upon complaint their suggestion was to push it multiple times gently. This did not always work and it would still stick. The electrical safety checking in the room was out of date. I have pictures from the tags from various items including the electric blanket which showed it had not been done since 2011. This is dangerous and appalling. From working in a hospital I know that when these items have their checks done the electrical tag is replaced so they obviously had not been done. The beds were uncomfortable with lumpy old spring mattresses.I paid $145 which wasnt worth it. The only reason they are able to ask that much is demand. The one positive thing I can say is that it was clean and it had nice heritage features.

Awful and very uncomfortable bed to sleep on, esp when one requires a good sleep after a long flight. Window rattled for all of 5hrs I was there. No aircon- isn’t it standard?? Great cooked brekkie, awesome, helpful and friendly staff. Was intriduced to the owner of Leviathan- snobbish and up himself- not friendly at all for someone who is in the people’s business- lift your game mate. You did me no favours, right?

Handy to the centre of town. Enjoyed the atmosphere of a heritage building which has been modernised for comfort. Friendly and helpful staff. Good reading light over the bed. Appreciated coffee/tea making facility in the room. Liked the maps, posters, photographs on the walls. Continental breakfast very good value. Dining room is a beautiful space.
