    It was clean and comfortable . The staff were wonderfully helpful and delightful . The food in the dining room was excellent especially with a 10% discount.
  • Casey
    Australia Australia
    I thought my stay would be loud as the hotel is close to a main road. This was not the case and I slept very well in the comfortable room I had. Nor did I hear any noise from the hotel downstairs itself. Parking was great and the hotel is close...

    Have stayed here a few times and find the accommodation decent and good value for when we need to stay in the area. Good location for Footscray and easy transport links to get into the CBD.
