This hotel is centrally located, just a 2 to 3 minute walk from Cuba Street. We particularly enjoyed the breakfast, which was included with the booking. The accommodation was comfortable, and the convenient location made it an excellent choice. Highly recommended for both comfort and accessibility.

Affordable and great location but the rooms need a revamp
Pros:

Location was great and like that there was a tv in the living area and the bedroom

Cons:

The couch in the lounge was really dirty. I didn’t even want to sit on it it was so stained. The rooms are so tired and paint is chipping off the walls, especially in the bathroom. There didn’t seem to be an extractor fan and you could tell it was really damp in there because the paint was flakey.

The worst Mantra / Murcure we have stayed at.
Pros:

The bed and location

Cons:

No parking, No breakfast on site when we paid for it when booking and if we still wanted it we had to walk to another hotel for it. The cheap room heaters with No safety tags.
