8.6/10

The hotel is wonderfully situated, just across the road from the Botanic Gardens and a short walk to the lively Ashton Lanes pubs and restaurants. The rooms are comfortable with spacious bathrooms but lack natural light in the bathroom due to a neon light. Service is top-notch with excellent housekeeping and laundry options. The location is superb, placing you central to the city attractions and offering easy access to transportation. The dining experience offers tasty toasts but could use some variety. Overall, a great value for money stay with some minor room amenities to consider.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious and clean, but the bathroom had no window, just a neon light. On the bright side, there were 3 single beds, which was convenient for us. The service was excellent, with prompt housekeeping and laundry assistance. The location was superb, right across from the Botanic Gardens, and just a short walk to the lively pubs and restaurants at Ashton Lanes. However, the dining options were limited, with only scones available. Overall, a decent hotel with some minor drawbacks.
