Moonrise Hotel

Moonrise Hotel

5/5 Excellent
"Super cool property, staff was nice. Room was good but the bed was tilted like the frame was broke and the chase lounge had a massive period blood stain. We put a towel over it so we didnt have to look at it. Roof top bar was awesome and the restaurant downstairs looked good but we didnt try it. "
