Thanks for having me, enjoyed my stay
Pros:

Really nice hotel, very spacious and comfortable rooms with all the amenities you would need. The room had a very spacious outdoor balcony, which would be good for entertaining guests.

Cons:

Can’t think of anything.

Mix of Good and Bad
Pros:

This hotel is a mix of good and bad. On the good side is the large restaurant with excellent live music on the Sunday we were there. The bartender/hotel desk attendant was very friendly and he went out of his way to make our dining experience the best it could be. He provided supplies that were missing from the room, he helped with getting into the hotel wifi as that information was missing from the room, and was just super responsive to our requests/questions. The large Iris room comes with a very large balcony with seating which was nice to enjoy on a mild evening.

Cons:

The room was very spartan and badly in need of updating. Kitchenette supplies were inadequate. No guest information of any kind in the room. The bathroom faucet was loose so you had to hold the base while lifting the lever. No body wash, so you need bar soap which they provide, but then there is no soap dish in the standup shower. Only one face cloth and only place to hang towels is on the back of the door. There is a healthy sized gap under the door to the balcony.

Peaceful quiet and a friendly environment.
Pros:

Everyone working here is very helpful. It is a pretty cosy quiet environment. It takes three minutes to walk from the hotel to the train station. I really like the fact that you don't need a car to get around. The shops restaurants are pretty close. It takes ten minutes to walk to the shopping centre twenty minutes to get to work. There is also a bar/restaurant situated on the ground floor of the hotel.

Cons:

Not applicable
