The hotel is central and close to shops, restaurants and pubs. It's also very close to the Esplanade which was lovely for an evening (or morning) stroll. Also nearby is the tourist information center.
I had an enjoyable stay.

The room was clean. The air conditioning ran quiet and cool. Overall it was a very good stay.
Very handy to food ,pubs etc….. behind shower doors need a good clean (scrub)& also under the bin bag in the bin was absolutely filthy.
Other than that , it was very nice thank you & affordable to enable you to spend extra time on the Mitchell or within Darwin.
Excellent location with budget price.
I literally just slept in the bed for about 6 hours and took off very early in the morning, the hotel provided everything I needed.

Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort
The room is too small and there is mould on pillows and pillow cases where you sleep so be weary of staying here
Clean and tidy with all the essentials included. Very central location. Its a cheaper than some and so attracts a mix of cients. And its on the edge of the area where bands etc happen. Would be great option for backpackers and those wanting a compact place to sleep.

Room stunk of cigarette smoke but apart from that was a good place to stay
We will never stay there again . I took photos of the unbelievable condition of the room nr 61 we stayed in . I sent the manager an email with the photos attached and have still not heard anything back . People need to be warned about this place .
It was value for money. Clean and basic. All I needed to short stay.

Disliked: Staff & service
It was difficult to locate property at first, as it was located off a lane behind the street that was advertised. The room itself was basic only, similar to backpackers which was located next door. About $50 cheaper.
Clean and tidy.
The smallest and most basic room I have ever stayed in.
Too expensive for what it is, could have had similar experience at a back packers.
Bring your own pillows.
Recently stayed in a suite in Cable beach for the same price.

Rooms closest to Mitchell St are noisy due to the location of the pubs/venues until about 2am.
