Stayed here for 2 days for a family vacation, the location is very convenient, very close to all attractions off clifton hill, conveniently located beside a Dennys for breakfast in the morning, the hotel was clean, a bit outdated, the beds were not the most comfortable, the rooms were spacious, staff friendly, parking $25 per night which is ok considering there are parking costs everywhere in that area, we parked for the weekend and walked everywhere. Noise level was not the best we could clearly hear the activities and public outside and got woken up by loud truck noises every morning around 7am which sounded like was a garbage truck but no garbage bins in sight, perhaps this was because we were located on the first floor. Overall good stay, I would stay here again because of location and price, we were out most of the day on Clifton Hill anyway and not so much at the Hotel

Great hotel with an awesome pool. The hotel was overall clean, but we did find someone else’s socks under our bed lol. In a great spot where everything is walkable, and still safe quiet part. Would highly recommend this hotel for families. Great pricing too!

Concerned about the housekeeper. When you guys change bed sheets make sure there is nothing on, like needle or something that can harm kids and then at the front desk didn't do action right away. They want us to change the bed sheets instead of them doing it. Then they realized after that we should move to different room around almost 11pm. This is important matter should have done right away. Instead of the guest waiting for what's going to happen next. So next time staying in the hotel, make sure to check the bed before you lay down on it. Very disappointed.

Overall was a nice stay with our large family, outside they could not accommodate our adjoining rooms, even with being in contact about the rooms a month or longer before the arrival date, as well as speaking to someone that morning. So it was a hassle with 5 kids and constantly going in and out in between rooms next to each other. No breakfast. The pool area is nice and the water was warm. Hotel is close to everything which is very nice.

Great hotel close to all the attractions on Clifton hill. Was very clean with mini fridge and microwave in the room, which was great with kids! Beds were good and spacious. Pool was nice as it was indoor /outdoor but had a lot of chlorine. We still enjoyed it every day!

Overall nice hotel. The rooms are outdated but they are clean. The beds are horribly hard. The pool was heated and my family enjoyed it. There is no water slide as shown in the photo.
