I enjoyed staying in the room and it was very clean. The breakfast was good and a different choice. The staff are very friendly. One minute walk to town from the hotel. None

Situated perfectly within walking distance of town centre and railway station. Ideally placed near to car parks.
-
Comfortable room with compact en suite. Nice garden area to sit in. Staff were lovely. The choice and quality of the breakfast was really good. It's close to the river for an easy stroll but only a short walk into the city centre.

We particularly liked Room 20 as it was cool and more private. We like the Darwin tasteful theme throughout and the interesting artefacts. The breakfast was very good, and the location is convenient for town centre. The garden is a lovely amenity. We were expecting bath robes as they were said to be included, but they were not supplied in the room. We did not notice until later when no staff available.

The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. The garden was beautifully maintained and considering the location, very quiet. The breakfast was very good. The bedroom was quite small for two people.

The room was nicely decorated and they did store our luggage upon arrival prior to check in The hotel was unmanned from 7pm and some music had been left on which played all night long right above our room so we had hardly any sleep.
