It provided what I expected
Pros:

It took forever to check in, quite disorganised
Consequently I couldn’t shower before my meeting

Cons:

Look I know what to expect @ the mermaid
But really with ALL THE REGULAR business they get. Given the joint was built in the 1970’s
Maybe some bathroom renovation is warranted

Pros:

Das Personal war freundlich und hilfsbereit.

Cons:

Das Zimmer ist eine alte Absteige und die Türschliessung zum Zimmer nicht vertrauenswürdig.
Der Kühlschrank machte in der Nacht einen riesen Lärm dass ich ihn ausschalten musste. Der Preis für die Übernachtung ist reine Abzockerei. Ich kam dieses Hotel wirklich nicht empfehlen.

This place was terrible. It needs a thorough clean and made more comfortable to stay for guests. It needs a bar fridge,
Pros:

Location was good

Cons:

The room & bathroom were filthy with mould in shower. Broken towel rail, filthy fan.
The room rate of $220pn is exorbitant for what is provided!
