    Ideal location in the city, close to bars and restaurants, comfortable beds (best sleep I’ve had in a long time), good shower in room, friendly staff, budget price but offers the same comforts of more expensive accommodation, and luggage storage available after check-out.

    Great location on Ghuznee St by Cuba St, easy to walk everywhere and a very reasonable rate compared to other hotels. The staff were also great to deal with and very helpful. Very clean and comfortable room with table and two chairs and a well equipped kitchen area (fridge, 2 rings and microwave) to self cater if needed. Good heating/aircon. I had a quiet room on the back of the hotel. The continental breakfast was great with a fresh muffin too. Very close to the Wellington Eye Centre if you need to stay over as I did.
