Cleanliness
8.8
Rooms repeatedly described as very clean and spotlessly maintained; occasional housekeeping lapses noted (glasses not cleaned) but overall cleanliness is a clear strength.
Service
9
Staff repeatedly praised as friendly, attentive and caring (multiple mentions of exceptional service, personalised attention and helpful staff like Nicole); service is a standout feature.
Location
8.6
Location is frequently praised (convenient, easy Uber to airport, walkable to CBD for many); a few guests mentioned it being a little far to walk to town for some, so generally very good but not perfect.
Room Quality
8.2
Rooms described as spacious, comfortable beds, good showers, balconies and kitchenettes in places; notable recurring complaint about uncomfortable pillows and some minor issues (small coffee cups).
Amenities
7.6
Good on amenities such as kitchenette, tea/coffee provisions and late check-out; mixed experience with parking (limited/confusing signage), noisy air conditioner and occasional restaurant/service notes, so amenities are mixed.
Value for Money
8.8
Multiple comments calling the hotel great value and good value for money; one guest noted it felt a bit expensive for extended stays, but overall perceived as good value.
Food and Beverage
9
Breakfast and coffee repeatedly praised (described as amazing, love the shakshuka, five-star coffee; restaurant and breakfast called great); minor negatives (small cups) do not outweigh strong positive sentiment.
Overall Experience
8.8
Overall very positive guest experiences (exceptional service, clean rooms, good breakfast and comfortable stays) with only a few consistent minor negatives (pillows, parking, occasional housekeeping issues).
