Pros:

Room had recently been refurbished and was well appointed, foyer and restaurant have also been renovated. Swimming pool area needs some work but is functionable. Location is excellent in walking distance to most CBD landmarks and waterfront dining areas. Would recommend when visiting Darwin.
