A comfy stay
Pros:

The location is very central to everything. The room is pretty, clean and cosy. We love the spacious bathroom which has a bathtub (a bath bomb provided!) and 2 shower outlets. The beds are very comfortable and extra pillows are provided too. Would be perfect if breakfast is also included.

Cons:

We stayed on a Sunday. The loud music below kept going till 11.45pm. Ear plugs are provided to block off the noise.

It was a beautiful room, a nice view of the old buildings surrounding and I very much enjoyed my stay
Pros:

The room was lovely, clean and well decorated. They included ear plugs too if you’re a light sleeper and they have live music downstairs. The staff were really friendly and I really enjoyed my stay

Cons:

The signage for the hotel entry could be better and the small, heavy barn style half doors made getting heavy luggage and duffle bags in/out a bit awkward

Good location but not worth the money or safety
Pros:

Good location, tidy rooms

Cons:

Bathroom was clean but the shower had mould, the bed was very uncomfortable and the elevators smelt awful. As the hotel is above a bar, we had an incident where a man was extremely drunk and yelling offensive language towards security while he continued up the stairs to the other bar. As 2 women, we did not feel safe.

The Old Australia(タイムスリップした気分のホテル感(部屋)
Pros:

駅近で徒歩の距離は便利でした。
窓が2重だったので一階のパブの音は全く響かず、
ゆっくり眠れました。
受付の女性が親切でした。彼女が不在の時はパブの方でしたが、彼も親切な笑顔と対応で安心しました。

Cons:

ホテルにwifi設備が無かった。
(古い由緒有る建築物なのでそれが無い！と言うならそれも実は現代人にとって携帯から離れる時間となって良い事だったかもしれません)
ホテルの一階がパブなのでドリンカーの人が大声を出していた時は治安がちょっと気になりました。

Great hotel.....No sleep!
Pros:

A great historic hotel that has fantastic huge fully renovated rooms, spotless cleanliness.

Cons:

There needs to be a warning about the live music and noise of packing up the bands to well past 1am each night. After a big day of touring Freemantle, you need a good night's sleep....No chance in this place.
