Clean and comfortable Very pleasant small hotel. Room with King size bed was large enough, very clean and comfortable. Although on busy street, the room was very quiet. The one downside was that the dual-flush toilet needed multiple flushes to do the job, which rather defeated the purpose.

We love staying at this hotel and staff feels like good friends the accommodations are always ample clean and comfortable. We would have left all five stars however it was a bit of an inconvenience with parking no longer being available. Berkeley Street parking is quite treacherous as most either need a residential permit to park or a metered spot that only allows you to pay two to three hours at a time through a mobile app which is quite clunky to use. we did circle around the block for quite some time trying to locate suitable parking and we're relieved when we did. Not necessarily a direct reflection of the hotel staff but it would have been a good notification to receive upon booking.

In a convenient location, but also busy. No parking on site, but we were able to find nearby street parking fairly easily (weekend). A bit run-down. Lots of dining options nearby. Worked great for a quick weekend getaway.

Extremely long wait checking in while a staff member was watching something live on their phone. Also, the shower wand would fall out whenever the water was turned off. Other than those two things it was fine for what it is. The cafe staff are amazing. Also does not have laundry facilities available (or so that employee said)

Great location and service in rooms, fully staffed 24/7 lobby/entrance but the function is a little awkward and the door is very heavy
