    We only stayed for two nights, but we would have loved to stay longer. The hotel has a charming retro flair that captivated us right from the beautifully designed hotel lobby. The entire hotel staff is extremely friendly and helpful. A 24/7 coffee...

    Location was perfect for the bars on the north side and was near many great food options. Was also surrounded by public transport options that went straight into the centre of downtown. A nice, quieter vibe if you're looking for something low key...
