Reviews

• Zietsch from Australia – 13 May 2025 (8/10)

  Everything was great. We just had difficulty getting access as we didn’t realise the building was not managed by a physical person. If you need any assistance you need to call a number, this was difficult for us to as we had just arrived. Had not yet got our phone up and running for the states. We couldn’t access the codes for entry and without them you can’t even enter the building.
  Once that was sorted we were fine. We were able to leave our luggage in the lockers until the room was available. The only other issue that wasn’t evident when booking, was that we were located on a hill, so walking was a bit more challenging and it was some distance to public transport.
  The accomodation itself was great however. The king bed was awesome, there was a fridge, and a microwave which was absolutely handy.
  
  What could be improved: Information regarding checking in and there being no manager on site to assist.

• Alicja from Finland – 10 April 2025 (9/10)

  Great location in a safe neighbourhood, and a very comfortable studio. Contactless checkin was completely problem-free. Lots of good restaurants nearby. Downtown is within a walking distance.

• Vickie from United States – 29 March 2025 (8/10)

  Breakfast?

• Elisabeth from United Kingdom – 25 March 2025 (9/10)

  Perfect location and comfortable check in via an app and code for front door and room door. The room was very clean and modern and very well equiped.
  I had one issue with my door code not working but was able to sort it out via the apps customer support to get back into the room.
  
  What could be improved: I did not mind this as I am not fussed about noise but the rooms are facing a very busy interstate (3 lanes each side etc A LOT of traffic) which is noticeable. I sleep with white noise on so I did not even notice but if someone is a light sleeper or needs it quiet you may want to think of choosing a different place.

• Metta from United States – 24 March 2025 (9/10)

  This room had everything you needed to feel comfortable and because of that, I will definitely stay again! Check-in was seamless and contactless. The little kitchenette even had cleaning supplies underneath the sink! The blinds did a pretty good job blocking out light so I could sleep well. The bed was comfortable. The shower had great pressure. I really appreciated the simple layout. The location was also super convenient to nearby restaurants – walkable. 10/10, would recommend!
  
  What could be improved: Nothing.

• Maureen-nz from New Zealand – 20 March 2025 (9/10)

  No meals were available at the property, but there was a very well stocked grocery store one block away which offered the basics and more. I had a great view of the city, motorway and weather, from my window. If I had any questions, help was just a message away via booking.com. Good internet and laundry. Security is a priority.
  
  What could be improved: I was there for a conference and i would have liked a work table. I had to hunch over the low table which was not too comfortable. Shower water took a while to warm up – hard for someone from where water conservation is a priority.

• Mj519 from United States – 12 March 2025 (8/10)

  Location was great! A brief walk to the market and a short stroll to the convention center. Building felt safe and not having to keep up with a key card was wonderful! Appreciated the self serve amenities restock station. Bath tub was great! Plenty of hot water! Kitchette was stocked well enough to be helpful during my stay.
  
  What could be improved: Wish the blinds would have a sheer option that allowed sunlight with a little privacy or mirror lined outside so light could come through without sacrificing privacy, instead of blocking sunlight or "fishbowl" feeling of having blinds open.
  The lighting in the living room could have been better or positioned differently.
  Also, would have been nice to have a designated smoking space outside.

• Cathy from United States – 22 February 2025 (9/10)

  Being able to feel safe while in vacation. The security of the property is great with the codes to get in. And able to storage your luggage before and after check out.

• Chao-cheng from Canada – 19 February 2025 (9/10)

  Overall very good. Line 1 light rail station is nearby within walking distance. Bus stops 10/12 are also within walking distance. Generally feel safe in this area. The room is super clean and the support from online staff was also good. There were plenty of supplies in case we run out of them.
  
  The location is also pretty good. We used the wrong panel to enter the pin from the beginning. We tried several time and cannot get in. But maybe it was only us.
  
  What could be improved: The down side is that the traffic nearby is always busy and noisy even during the night. The hotel did offer us the ear plug though. Cannot complain!
  
  However, we noticed that the 1) the toaster even it is clean outside, there were some crumbles inside from earlier stay, 2) the pan provided is with clear scratches which we would not dare to use, 3) one of the shower/shampoo dispensers may not be installed correctly (the right most one is higher than the other two), making the use of it difficult. In addition, the quality of the shampoo/shower gel may not in good quality – not an expert on this but it doesn’t feel nice to us.

• Björn from Austria – 11 February 2025 (9/10)

  Cheap price for top location
  
  What could be improved: Cold water in the shower
