It was two single beds pushed together in my room. Pretty uncomfortable. The shower hot water was temperamental. They never mopped the breakfast area. I spilled my coffee, and told the staff. They wiped some up, but 3 days later the coffee was still there.

Good stay

The staff working at the hotel were all very friendly and accommodating. We came in a big car and wouldn’t fit in the underground car park and the staff happily provided alternative parking for us. The rooms are becoming a bit dated and felt unclean. The carpet and couch had stains, the bathroom silicone had mould around the shower, sink and toilet and the walls all around the room had dirty marks and scuffs. The pillows on the beds are quite thin and uncomfortable. Daily room service made sure the sheets, towels and room was always feeling fresh, which did improve the feeling. The hotel is in a good space and within walking distance of the CBD. I think with a bit of TLC this hotel would reach what you expect a 4 star hotel to look like.

The property is well priced for the area, which is walking distance to china town and the mall. Staff were helpful. The room was clean and comfortable; but a little bit tired. The fridge was a bit small (no freezer section), which was a tricky for a family of five trying to save on take away. No microwave in the room, but one in the lobby. The shower is over the bath.
