Good value for money
Pros:

The room was spacious and tidy. Comfortable bed and has everything you need for a short stay. The staff is also super friendly and helpful.

Cons:

It is an old building, so the insulation ain't that good and being on one of the busiest streets in the CBD, it can get quite noisy. My room was also near the elevators and they were surprisingly noisy going up and down. But nothing that a good pair of earplugs won't fix. The heater was good, but it was also very noisy, so definitely not something a light sleeper would leave on for the night, even with earplugs on. The bathroom was tidy, but the shower definitely gives away the age of the hotel. But overall nothing you wouldn't expect from a CBD hotel in an older building.
