We were surprised to see guests with dogs! We didn't realise there were such hotels available for pet owners! We guess, hopefully, there are special rooms set aside for these guests!! It didn't impact on our visit in any way, which was very enjoyable. Only problem was our phone was not connected to Reception when we needed it to be.

The room is dangerous as the bathroom is raised with a dangerous rise. This included a raised a sharp piece of metal above the concrete step. I fell and cut my foot badly. Reception were a disgrace blaming me for the fall at 2.30pm. He advised that in 7 years & thousands of guest, I was the first. My colleague arrived the next day & the same happened to him. This is concerning for mothers holding a baby or the elderly. I damaged my hip also in the fall. I asked for fresh towels & a plastic bag for the blood covered towels & reception told me to throw the bloodied towels into the hall, which I refused based on concerns for others hygiene. I begged for some disinfectant & some band aids. This was met with a very rude reply. It is a shame as the hotel itself is situated well and nicely fitted out. If you stay there be very careful when entering the bathroom and do not expect any friendly service. Room service only emptied the bin full of bloody tissues. No refill of coffee, bed making or basic care.

Pleasant, no frills hotel :-)
It was a pleasant, no frills stay. There was a hot plate so I could have cooked, which is nice for a small place without a restaurant, but the fan in the bathroom didn't turn off, so that was a bit noisy at night. (Turns out it's supposed to turn off after some time if the bathroom door is shut and light off, but pretty sure I shut the door because of the noise and it was still going the next morning!)

A very central city location but no onsite parking. My room was pet friendly but could have been a bit cleaner. (Spills on the wall next to the bed & alot of dust on sills & baseboards) Front desk staff were lovely & had extra towels ready for my pooch when asked. The pet offerings such as wipes, poopy bags, comfortable dog bed & clean bowls were great. The carpet in the hallway needs to be cleaned as its obvious other pets had had accidents in the hall & the stains were just left on the carpets. Reasonable accommodation for the cost. Would only stay again because its pet friendly.

Helpful front desk staff. Quick check in and check out. Room was clean and spacious. Comfortable beds. No on site parking so have to leave car in a nearby paid car park overnight and walk back to the Sebel

Liked: - kitchenette - it is very small so don't expect to do a roast dinner but suited me to prep some of my own meals - comfortable bed - clean - mostly quiet -- no noise from outside but I was directly across from the lift (which was very close to the front door) and was woken by people coming in late on Saturday night. Just ask for a room away from the lift. Disliked: - parking is off-site - gym is in basement and a bit spooky.

Neat, clean and quiet in a great location
Lovely, safe and quiet motel in fantastic location. Our room was in the top floor and had a wonderful view of civic and black mountain. There’s a neat little cafe downstairs making great coffee and check-in was a breeze. Parking can be a little tricky and you have to park in the nearby Canberra centre. But there’s a drop off area out the back to unload and you have the added benefit of an easy walk to nearby pubs, restaurants and shops. We’ve stayed here a few times now and are never disappointed.

We were very disappointed on arrival at the hotel Found the young man at reception difficult to understand. We asked where we could leave our car instead of pointing at the sheet he had just given us and we would be able to follow instructions he proceeded to tell us where to park which we found hard to understand and how much it would be which was incorrect and nothing about the vouchers that were held by reception So parking became very expensive.
