It is very old & dated. Bathroom wasn’t cleaned properly when we first check in, there were other peoples hairs on the bath & door. There was a half drunk bottle of soda water left in the mini bar. The shower was the worst shower ever. You couldn’t have happy water if you even turned the cold tap on. So it was a trickle of warm water. The pillows resembled sheets they were so thin. Not great. Won’t stay here again.

Friendly, helpful staff. Reasonably priced with convenient buffet breakfast to fuel up for the day. I’ve stayed a couple of times, and noticed both times, although clean as a whistle with good amenities, the bathrooms and rooms were a bit dated and tired. Not a fan of a shower over a bath but that’s what you can expect. The big win for this hotel is its convenient location and off street parking. You can walk everywhere from here. The Canberra Centre is a five minute walk for shopping, and there are also loads of dining options within a short distance.
