    Probably only downfall being that we could hear the neighboring room talking through the walls, but they ended up being asleep when we got back to our room. not something can really be helped nor fixed :)

    Very impressed w/ how clean it was, loved that there was tea coffee and milk available in the room. Loved how comfortable the bed and pillows were, loved the city view, we will definitely be booking here again in the future.

    I hope there will be bathroom slippers next time. And maybe a little upgrade on tv and wifi.

    The room is surprisingly big as well as the bathroom. We had comfortable stay!

    Difficult to check in after hours. Venue needs to review process for last minute bookings and late check in. No exterior lights on property - very dark street & felt unsafe.

    Price was high, but given F1GP weekend then only to be expected.

    Really friendly staff. Walking distance (5min) to F1GP, also easy stroll to CBD (about 40min). Lots of eateries and cafes close by, again in easy walking distance

    Smoke detector was covered with plastic. Asked for 2 single beds and was given a king and a single rollaway bed. Access code to get into building did not work- had to phone hotel and lady wasn't very hospitable.

    Bed was comfy and room was good location for our visit.

    Uncomfortable beds and pillows, also flickering light on and off, all night long, in the corridor outside the room, was very visible from under the door. Sleep was quite difficult. Expected better quality for the cost.

    Quaint B and B style, staff were friendly and check in process efficient.

    Room is not really spacious but we did not really care. We were only there to sleep. Maybe one thing that was getting annoying during our 10 days stay was the hallway door. They need to install some "anti-collision" system on the doors because once it closes it shakes the walls. At the end of stay there were some strange people went we left the building it was kinda crazy. Not sure how they got into the building they seemed homeless but they have claimed to left their keys inside their rooms.

    We spent 10 days there mainly because of AO 2024. It was good enough to lay down your head for the night. It is really close to CBD. Beds were comfy enough. We had been provided with towels. There was only one staff during our stay but he made our room if we requested to. Absolutely loved the bathroom. It is equipped with every basic needs. Room had small fridge. Also a water heater with cups, tea and coffee. All in all we loved our stay there, although we left 22nd Jan we still haven't got back our 100 AUD deposit for the room. We even left some gift for the lovely stuff but there are no refunds just yet.

    I couldn't find plates/cups cutlery for kitchen area and the room didn't have enough cups/mugs for us to use so I had to go ask,

    So quiet- couldn't believe how noisy it was outside when I opened the window, compared to when windows were shut. Beds really comfortable.
