I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The location was perfect, with the beautiful botanical gardens just across the road. It was so convenient to be able to wander over and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. Additionally, being able to stroll into town for a meal was wonderful - stress-free and enjoyable. The hotel facilities were great, especially the in-house services. The breakfast options were delicious, and I was pleased to find that the continental breakfast was included in the price of my stay. The staff were friendly and helpful, making my experience even more enjoyable.
No complaints.
We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The cleanliness was excellent, and the hotel facilities were impressive. We loved the fact that they had a restaurant, which made it convenient for us to have a delicious meal without having to go out. The location was perfect for us as well, with the botanic gardens, supermarket, and bottle store all within walking distance. Additionally, the staff were friendly and accommodating, making our stay even more enjoyable.
For us, it was ideal.
We absolutely enjoyed our stay. The hotel was warm, quiet, and very clean. The beds were comfortable and warm. The hotel is close to numerous franchises, making it convenient for a cheap meal. It is also located across the road from the lovely Botanic Gardens and cafe. The hotel is easily accessible, being on State Highway 1. We also appreciated the proximity to university student flats.
Can't fault anything about it.
We loved the convenient location of this hotel, right near the Botanic Gardens. It was perfect for us as we were visiting our kids at the nearby university. The cleanliness of the hotel was top-notch, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The parking was easy and made loading our luggage a breeze.
Nothing, it is perfect.
