    This is a great location very close to Southbank, ferry, train and bus transport as well as only a short walk to the city. There are a lot of cafes and restaurants nearby and the performing art centre, museum and art gallery is also an easy walk....

    Very comfortable bedding. Spacious rooms. The location was great for walking around the city. I would stay here again. If you have kids, it's in walking distance to the beach area which would be a great family spot.
