4 out of 5

Property was central in Darwin with everything within walking distance. Understand that with covid, rooms were not serviced daily. Actually not serviced at all during the whole stay but price was not reflective of this reduction of service.

The man who checked us in did not know what he was doing, it took ages and our room wasn't ready so then he had to find another room. There were 10 or so people waiting to be checked in.

Dear Guest, I apologise for the delay at check in and can assure you all staff are trained and well versed in their positions and duties. I am unsure of the specific delay as your review has been posted as Anonymous and therefore difficult for us to track and trace any issues. We appreciate your feedback so we are able to review our performance and focus on areas for improvement. Thanks for sharing your experience. Regards, Michelle Davidson General Manager

The staff were great, location was brilliant, room was spacious. My only criticism was not enough sugar in the room, and house keeping were very slow at bringing us some. Not really a big issue. Would definitely stay again.

Staff were always very friendly. Room was large and clean. The property is very central and easy to get too and from places. Wifi did not work for us though and we asked twice before giving up.
