Good luck if you have a car!
Pros:

Room facilities in studio were good with stovetop, dishwasher and clothes washing machine.

Cons:

The process to park our car and get our keys was one of the most frustrating I've endured. We had booked & received confirmation of a parking spot. All's good we thought. When we arrived st the hotel there was no obvious parking anywhere near reception. We circled the small block 3 times.We saw a few potential unsigned parking spots but they were taken. We finally found an entry to the hotel parking that was open. We then had to park infront of a spot with a bollard leaving one of us behind incase our car was in the way of someone departing. I then found an intercom to allow me to enter the building again with no helpful signage.Luckily I guessed the correct lift to use. When I politely told the receptionist that a message detailing the parking process would have prevented alot of frustration he simply told me that next time I should call him - and that other people had previously had the same problem! I have given this property a low rating due to their complete lack of concern for the problems guests have when arriving with a vehicle. It is a warning for other guests and frankly the good facilities did not make up for the high level of frustration we had at the end of a day's travel. Furthermore, other guests have already let this establishment know that information about the parking is desperately needed and they have been ignored.

Cons:

There was no compendium in the room explaining the air con and tv
And how to contact reception.
Not everyone is aufait with doing it on their mobile. However these were very small matters. The standard was very good

A great weekend in Phillip ACT
Pros:

An excellent location close to everything that we wanted

Cons:

I tried twice to call on the number listed in booking.com, The calls were not answered and the voice mail box was full so a message could not be left. Apparently the receptionist was on a break. I would suggest that the front desk needs to be staffed continuously during office hours. A minor glitch in an otherwise very enjoyable stay

Value for money but not thrilled.
Pros:

Convenient location.

Cons:

No restaurant. The one they recommend is blocks away, so the receptionist said. Ordered via Uber. Hard to find, park while checking in.
