Perfect location for me and very comfy bed and pillows.
Pros:

The location was great for me, I knew it would be noisy as that’s just what you expect in that area. The staff were lovely and very helpful, although they weren’t available 24/7. The bed was super comfortable, and the room was very spacious with great amenities. I’d definitely stay here again!

Cons:

The aircon was stuck on cold the first night and wouldn’t turn off. So was super cold. Staff member was really kind and helped the next day to sorted it. But it didn’t work on heat.

Noisy Brunswick grunge stay
Pros:

My room was very nice and comfortable and the location worked for me

Cons:

I stayed on a Friday and Saturday night. Live music from the bar downstairs drifted straight up to my room. So if you value your sleep don’t stay here.

Only stayed one night this time but I’ll definitely be back. Location is perfect.
Pros:

The room was just lovely with such nice furnishings. The bathroom was huge and the show really hit which was very welcomed. The staff were really helpful too. I asked for a slightly later check out and it was no problem at all. I also liked how the rooms were away from the bar area and secure.
