Perfect
Pros:

The hotel is so close to restaurants and bars, extremely quite you would not know you were staying in the heart of the city.
No complaints at all. Highly recommend and will be returning for sure.

Cool vibe and thoughtful snacks and provisions
Pros:

Great decor, we loved the thoughtful snacks and drinks provided and the bed was really comfy. We thought the location was amazing - parking building a 2 min walk around the corner, Cuba Street and lots of shops and eating nearby.

Cons:

The great location did mean there was a bit of singing and bar noise so on a weekend light sleepers might have an issue. The shower pooled water on the floor.

Stylish & Great Vibe!
Pros:

All the little extras & stylish touches really make this hotel. We loved the late check in boxes by the main entrance with our room key in a beautifully written envelope, the complimentary snacks & drinks in our room. Still & sparkling water on tap in the hall & T2 Tea & Coffee Bags. The bar had a great vibe & of course being just off Cuba Street was perfect for a great dinner. There's also a Wilsons Parking Building almost next door too
