Basic but quiet, safe and clean. Great location. Arrived 10am ( check in 3pm ) to see if we could leave luggage and were able to check in there & then. Unexpected but very pleasant.

We reserved a standard bed room a month in advance. We were instead given a room for the disabled (with all the alert wires hanging in the room and bathroom, a half open shower door), and were told that it was because they are fully booked (apparently they don't understand the meaning of a RESERVATION. The price charged was the same. - Toilet wouldn't flush well - you needed about an hour for the water tank to fill up enough to flush your waste. - Air conditioning seems to be controlled by the building owners and not the guests - you couldn't turn on the AC. They said when the weather warms up then they will allow use of the AC. Instead we were given a cheap electric fan and asked to open the window. - Bedsheets seemed dirty when we arrived. - Receptionist told us we had a great view out the window. It turned out to be blocked by building walls all around. - The only plus for this place is the location - right across Waverly Station.

Small room for two people. No microwave or mini fridge so couldn’t keep drinks. No view and no bucket or anything to even get ice to try keep drinks cold. Doors just got painted so the smell was throughout the room and hotel. And zero bin in rooms which is weird. No bag in toilet bin.

Brilliant location. Extremely disappointed by the size/quality of room. Pictures do not match what you check in to. Staff were lovely and room was clean. Absolutely not worth the price we paid, if the location wasn’t so good we would have changed to a different hotel when seeing the room.

Property was exactly as expected. The location was great right next to Waverly station. The rooms were small but fine. Front desk staff were great. The small bar area in the main lobby was a nice amenity with a larger-than-expected list of spirits and cocktails. The only negative was some weak water pressure in the shower. I would stay here again for a short stay!

Hotel is literally right across the street when you walk out of the train station and near everything you'd want to see in the city or by public transit to get there. Room was nice, clean and offered amenities expected. Bed was very comfy. Would recommend.

4* Hotel, 3* service
Stay was okay, check in were issues with card machine. No available kitchen within hotel or food other than bar snacks. Bit disappointing after a travel, and with it being a 4* hotel. Room was a little dated in comparison to the rest of the hotel itself. Bed was comfortable, good sleep.

Modern Convenient Hotel.
A well located modern hotel across the road from the main train station. We asked for a view and our room was overlooking the main street, which was really nice. Comfy bed, super clean and zero noise from outside due to secondary double glazing. The hotel use papercups in rooms for tea and coffee, which does not feel eco friendly as they are disposed after each use. Staff are very friendly and the bar area is modern and well used. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend.
