Booked three King rooms. Two parties had spacious rooms and king beds. Ours was not spacious, nor a king bed. We spoke to Reception and were told that all rooms had king beds. We told him ours did not, and it clearly was not a king bed. The only other option for us was the spacious room with twin beds. We were charged the price of a king room and did not get it.
Hard to even tell this is a hotel, really need to pay attention when you arrive.
Is close to shopping, but really no dining options.
Car park gate is down a sketchy alley past garbage and junk piled up. Car park is very tight.
Loved the safe parking and well appointed ensuite bathroom

Difficult to access the parking area as it’s in an alley behind the hotel
Birinda gave us great service
Better signage on Yaldhurst Road is supposedly in the works
Look for the Horse & Jockey , The Alpine door is adjacent to this business
Small room, carpets need a deep clean as stained, only 1 plate 1 glass for 2 people

The actual room was very clean and tidy.
That said the chair at the desk in the room was broken at the base and the back sonjnable to be used.
Yes there is free parking but it is very limited and restricted to about 8 small cars which is fine if listed in the ad and you know you will have to park on the street..
The staff however were friendly and helpful.
Very good room (the first room allocated smelt of cigarette smoke but easy move to another room when requested).
Getting the car into the car park was a little convoluted but straightforward once familiar with it.
