Amazing stay!
Jonathan, 1-night trip

Paul, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

It is such a centrally located accommodation. Clean and well looked after. The staff are lovely and very efficient.
Kim, 8-night trip

2/10 Poor

Was not allowed to check in due to no physical photo ID (stolen wallet), had photo of ID on phone which was accepted at other hotels. No leniency showed by reception, had to find alternative accommodation at 9pm after long day of travel. Attempted to contact manager for refund without success.
Anthony, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

This should be considered a 2 star motel or less. The staff at the front are not helpful. If you need reliable WiFi this is NOT the place to stay. The shower and shower curtain had mildew/mold. I saw a roach in my room and you can hear everyone out in the hallway. The hotel owners have done a poor job on renovating this motel. I would not recommend anyone to stay here. I couldn’t wait for my time to end at this hotel.
Izamar, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location & good breakfast offer. Only one person acknowledging guests on reception but apart from that no issue. Spacious room with good facilities
Rebecca, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We only stayed 1 night, value for money was great & it was close to lots of places to eat & Woolworths was across the road - little bit old / tired but for a short stay would definately recommend, they also did breakfast on the balcony for $10 which was great
Julie, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Where the hotel certainly needs some TLC it is in a great location , close to so much , bars , restaurants , tour operators , cruise terminal and more . The staff couldn’t be more helpful .

8/10 Very good

Really liked the charm of the building's exterior as well as the breakfast dinning area.
Benjamin, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Hides had an exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. You can order the continental breakfast there, or just sit on the veranda, eating your yogurt from woolies. Super walkable area.

Their breakfast is pretty good and has a number of good vegetables continental options
prasad, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Basic

just painting the hotel and keep all old run down appliances does not cut it. Aircon was loud (defect) that you can’t run it at night. Door between 2 rooms paper thin. Reception not welcoming. Arrive before 2am and ask if by chance the room is ready, answer “check in at 2” lockers around the corner 6$. Even in the evening looking at you 5m from the glass entry door waiting that you type the door code in instead open the door remotely. No hello or anything. There motto “no fluff” hits it on the head Not to mention no room service within a 3 night stay.
Lutz, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good location, short walk to shops, attractions.
