Wanted a romantic night away in Hobart. The hote was bad and we went home. The whole event from start to finish was very
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Hard to find, no where safe to park, noisy and the dirty linen came through a congested foyer while we were trying to book in. Upon arrival, we were told that items inside the kitchen of our booked apartment were broken. When trying for a refund through booking.com, they told Me that the hotel was responsible for the refund. When I rang the hotel to get the refund, they told me that booking.com was responsible.
