Kelly’s travels
It was right in town so walkable to everything. It had no parking so had to park on road or Woolworths car park, not ideal. We had room 4 on ground floor. The room was very small and dark with a panel of glass, not a window. Lots of memorabilia, which was interesting. It had ear plugs by the bed, was wondering why but you find out later a bit of noise in area. A continental breakfast was included with basic needs.

Great place!
Fabulous old building that’s now quirky and fun, in a steampunk kind of way. Just be warned, the lounge closes at 8pm and there's a bit of road noise, but otherwise highly recommended.

Cute place, but too small
Very well-decorated room in a renovated historic building on a busy road. The front desk person was very friendly and helpful. The room was small but cozy. The parking was a block away, which wasn't a problem, but there wasn't any place to drop off your luggage while you checked in. The continental breakfast had high quality food, but not many choices. I felt like overall it was a good place for one night, but not an extended stay.

They need to install some proper curtains that actually block the light from the extremely well lit carpark behind the hotel.

our room had character and was comfortable for a one night stay. Sadly, there was noise at night from outside on the street, disturbing our sleep and despite adequate lighting, it felt dark, however the reception staff was very friendly and welcoming

The lack of fresh air in the rooms at night was the only small issue I had. Not really a complaint as probably not a lot can be done regarding this as the structure of the building restricts anything. Intriguing decor and a pleasure to stay there.
