"Spent two nights widweek at this hotel on a business trip to Darwin. When I arrived, the girl on reception was very helpful and efficient, gave me my hotel key and when I got to the room, it had not been cleaned. Another visit to reception later and room was cleaned promptly. My room was at the front of the hotel and as the bar is open until 2am, the place was extremely noisy, coupled with the clientele being predominantly back-packers, 4-5am was their leaving time for coach trips, so little sleep was achieved. Room was relatively comfortable, but lacked a few facilities (including internet connection). Location was good - within CBD, but parking was poor - a handful of spaces tucked around the corner and metal barriers on them provided an interesting obstacle course. On the whole, a very basic hotel in need of a serious refurb and overpriced. I'll be unlikely to choose this hotel again." - Matt Mullins
