Pros:

Staff were beautiful, helped us change rooms and supplied microwave, toaster ect. Clean and value for money

Cons:

Disappointed that there is no restaurant only a breakfast which i might say is the most simple breakfast I've ever had, I think it's a bit confusing when they say light breakfast, should say bread and cereal. Other than that, we had an amazing experience.
Thank you Argus

Fantastic stay in Darwin city. Highly recommend.
Pros:

As NT locals we stay here every time we come to the city. Always clean and a great place for an overnight stay. Very comfortable beds and always so very clean.

Cons:

The new breakfast service area. The GF bread was much easier when we could grab them ourselves but now you have to get the staff to get them. Also was tricky communicating to the staff when they mark us off the list and our eldest child was still in bed and needed to come down later in the morning, and we had already been 'marked off' to say we had been.

Breakfast was included in the price and you could have as much as you liked. There was plenty of choice for breakfast. The price of the room was very reasonable. The rooms were clean and comfortable and we had a service everyday. Staff were pleasant and polite. There wasn't any problem whatsoever.

Not being able to order or find food in the hotel after breakfast.
