Real guests • Real stays • Real opinions
Excellent location, parking, spacious rooms and very comfortable.
AustraliaThe property is located in the buzzing harbour district right near the Salamanca markets. The self-contained apartments were nicely appointed. The bed was very comfortable, and the loft style was appealing. Be aware that there is limited parking (although we scored a prime spot at the front of the hotel). The rooms are not air conditioned which may be an issue in summer.
AustraliaCentral location right on the pier. Good variety of food outlets within walking distance. Very handy to Salamanca market and other attractions. We had a great view from our apartment. Apartment was very clean and well presented.
