Other places in Darwin we stayed were higher priced and in even worse conditions so I’d book this place again. ##### Allison Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Grissel 30 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Good location, clean amenities and great staff ##### Grissel Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Sarah 25 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities I enjoyed the self check-in/check-out. Every time i went through reception there was staff there so, if i'd needed any help, they were closeby. The room was nice and clean but perhaps a little dated. The tv was tiny given the size of the room (being a king deluxe room) and the positioning of the furniture meant that even if you had a nice view, you weren't in a position to see it. Otherwise a really comfortable stay, no issues. ##### Sarah Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Darren John 26 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff were great.set in middle of town was great. ![From the room](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2864905f-10a2-4ee3-baee-233a307abead-1753493168473.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Water front ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c2bd0083-87f4-4e14-892e-0f35a8900d3b-1753493168527.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Early morning street quiet ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8712bb3a-7d35-4a02-83a1-07b218e89fcd-1753493167357.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Lane of hotel entrance ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4b535a7b-766a-4135-8eb8-a782490d1a20-1753493167828.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Darren John Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Simon 23 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Staff were excellent ##### Simon Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Brian 26 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Staff was very helpful. ##### Brian Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Roy 29 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Verry comfortable and Verry close to the bars ##### Roy Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jack 22 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great room.
