Definitely recommend
Pros:

We were greeted by smiling staff when we arrived and the desk staff were very helpful. We loved the decor. It was like going back in time.
Our room was huge, spotless and had everything we needed. A bonus for us was we were able to charge our EV in the secure underground carpark.
When we visit Canberra again, we will definitely stay here again.

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

방이 넓어서좋았어요

Cons:

Bathroom이 생각보다 너무 좁았어요.
4박5일을 머물렀는데 한번도 제대로된 청소 서비스를 받을수없었어요.
청소후 방에 돌아가보면 샤워실에 머리카락 그대로있고 화장실 청소는 한번도 안했어요
많은 호텔을 다녔지만 이런곳은 처음이예요

You can hear the toilet flushing from above and the fan from the bathroom was loud ! I didn’t get any sleep until around 330am as I can hear noises , conversations coming from the room next door !

It was great for our night away.
Pros:

The room was spacious and the beds were very comfortable. It was great having a bath in the room traveling with a toddler. The staff upon check in were lovely and so helpful. It was the perfect location for us and we enjoyed our stay.

Cons:

The only thing that was disappointing was the quality of the food. We had breakfast from the room service menu and the meal was cold and like rubber to cut and chew.
