Our stay was very good. The staff were excellent. My only issue was that each day I had to ask for milk, and on one day tea bags, as house keeping forgot to replenish them. But they did a great job in cleaning tidying and remaking our bed. Overall we were very pleased with our stay.

Requested a quiet room to get some work and study done. The team were lovely and accomodating and found me just what I needed. Room was very clean although the carpet was a bit worn. Gym and pool were in reasonable condition especially the cardio equipment.
Braddon restaurants and the city a short walk away and a tram stop was close by.
Would definitely recommend and stay again.
