Stay was great. Only a few little things that added up that took it away from me giving 5 stars. For example, room could have been a bit cleaner... few random hairs around the toilet if you know what I mean. Also we were a family of 3 staying in the room and only 2 towels. Also train station was right behind the hotel so was very loud at night. But overall great place. Rooms were modern with nice amenities. Even had makeup remover pads! Also heaps of great walkable options for dining and shopping centre with Target and chemist only a 5min walk away.
