    Clean accommodation although very tired looking, nothing attractive on the outside but serviceable

    the atmosphere needed lifting, more coloured painted walls maybe

    Hotel itself was a little run down and needed a facelift. Room was clean but very dark with no view. Staff were very helpful.

    Abit of a walk to the Waterfront but so much cheaper than other hotels in the area that it evens out

    Great that it has a pool for the kids. Very close to shops

    excellent location, friendly staff, but a bit pricey...
    • Leisure trip

    showers aren't very wide, and then they mount the soap holder and bottles of shampoo, conditioner and body wash on the side wall which you knock into when in the shower, shower nozzles are terrible, you cant turn the showers on from the side, you have to stand in front of the shower to turn it on and can't escape that first blast of cold water out of the nozzle lol. parking fee's are ridiculous compared to other places in Darwin nearly 3 times as expensive and when asked if they could reduce or cap the price for over a week stay, the answer was no...

    location is excellent, right in the center of town and close to everything!

    a bit “soulless” - utilitarian. the reception staff standing next to bank of screens rather than having a comfortable professional desk - I felt tired for them.
