Absolutely no staff. Upon check out the cleaners watched me struggle up the steps with my bag. Bathroom was the size of a broom closet. Mimi bar lacked variety or imagination. Breakfast on offer was $15 for a bowl of cereal a d an OJ. I bought cereal and oj at Woolies for have that but had to buy my own bowl and cutlery. NOT a boutique hotel just because you hang some art on the wall. Totally missed the mark for extra touches.

Hotel was very quaint and unique. Room was well set out and the bed was the most comfortable bed ever. We were facing onto a very busy road but no traffic noise at all. Very easy to check in and staff were so lovely to accomodate our early check in request. Close by to lots of dining options, shops and Cataract Gorge - all easy walking distance. Would definitely stay again and recommend.

even though......
we stayed 2 nights in Dec. there had been an issue with some flooding in the dining room prior to our stay, so no sit down meals available. Reception did offer a breakfast pack (pr packed style) we declined this offer and took advantage of a very nice little take away food option called the Flying Sparrow just a block away( this was suggested by Reception also) I don't think I have stayed in a Hotel with such comfy bedding. Excellent cleanliness. One comment to be made; due to the flooding issue; ;Management might have been able to do an offer with a nearby restaurant for meals. Would definitely stay again.

A quirky heritage buiIt looks better inside than from the outside. The building has been updated for more modern times. Be wared though there are lots of different stairways to rooms so if you have lots of luggage or trouble climbing them it may not be suitable for your accomodation.Very convient location within walking distance to CBD area. Has reasonable amount of free parking on site. A varitey of rooms. Our room was a queen with ensuite. Nicely decorated in modern period fixtures and drapes. The bed was comfortable and warm. Bathroom funtional and nice hot shower. Plently of mirrors. It had a mini bar and small fridge. We had a balcony room but it could not be accessed which was a pitty. Also if there was and emergency it could have been used as emergency access point if needed. There was some street noise and especially earlier on in the night with a bit of local hooning a street away. They appeared to disperse later into night. The staff were efficent and polite when we arrived. There was no ice available to have with a drink unfortunately. There was provision to order a continental breakfast kit for about $15. We didn't order. We would recommend this Hotel to stay at. A little pricey but comparitable to others in area.
