Perfect location, surrounded by great cafés and bars. Easy walk to Long Dog Cafe for superb cakes and lunch, and Esplanade Restaurant for fresh pizza. Hotel has its own secure parking underneath (need to give rego when you checkin) which is handy as it is busy around the bars and parking can be difficult in the street. Staff are attentive and duper friendly, and rooms clean, modern, and include fridge, kettle and microwave. Milk on arrival. Highly recommend staying here.
