Very noisy with a function downstairs and the bedroom was hard to sleep in with a light coming through the window all night - no blackout blinds. I was not happy at all and we didn’t sleep well

Great location but no parking. Hotel said to park in nearby carpark and they would provide code on check-in and not to put ticket in machine or my card would be charged. Then charged me $65 per day for parking on checkout. They were having system difficulties when we arrived, however still took almost an hour to check us in! Only one reception staff on the phone constantly, told us to sit (20 minutes) then checked another guest in while still waiting. The room was old and musty with rust strains running down wall from vent. Staff moved us on request - 2nd room was better but stifling hot with aircon turned off in winter. Had to open window for air - noise from traffic and nearby buildings was deafening.

The 150 year building has wonderful area when you first walk in, very classy. The more common rooms are not the biggest i recommend 2 people max. A/C was not the best and struggled with the humidity.
