Perfect location to Cuba and Courtenay, all necessities met for an overnight stay. Spacious room. Can't complain about pokey bathroom considering all other locations were more expensive with a shared bathroom. Suited perfectly for a Sat night out on the town.

Despite what others say about this property we did not have a negative experience. The staff were kind, they allowed us to check in early. Our room was tidy, the shower was nice. Only issue we faced was no windows. The beds were presented nicely and comfortable. The sink was clean. All around a nice cheap hotel.

Adequate for needs

It was lovely and quiet. A cheap room with all you need. I liked the community area and wasn't aware I could cook so that was a bonus for next time. Squeaky floors but an old building. It suited me fine and location was close to what I want

Room was fine and clean, very basic accommodation but I was not in search of luxury. Good value considering the low price and central location. No exterior windows, so if you like the room very dark at night will be perfect.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The extract ducting was noisy. The shower head needed replacing a long time ago. Lifting the toilet seat i found it hadn't been cleaned from the previous tenants, the toilet brush is disgusting and a health hazard. Finally mopping the floors with a dirty mop is not classed as cleaning. The floor was sticky and i witnessed the mopping in person. The whole experience made me feel sick and i would never come back.

Disliked: Staff & service
The room was ok, the bed was relatively comfortable, and the property wasn’t as bad as the reviews portrayed it to be. The tv had Netflix which was a bonus. The shower was good. It was relatively quiet considering how the property is in the middle of the party precinct. It is more like a backpackers than a hotel, but of a relatively higher quality than a standard backpackers.
