clean room. however, the smell of bleach and mould was strong. room and bathroom should be regulary aired at considerable length of time to at least remove the smell substantially, prior to its use

Good.

The hotel is situated in a great spot, and despite being on the busy Darby Street, the rooms are quiet. Thew rooms are clean, the bed is comfortable, and the kitchen and bathroom supplies make it possible to eat in if desirable. A negative was that I did not know that I would need to pay an extra amount for secure parking beneath the hotel.

The apartments are in a very central location, with lots of eateries and shops at its doorsteps. It can get a bit noisy at night but will become quiet by 12 midnight.

Huge apartments inconvenient location with bedroom rear making for very quiet experience

Excellent location, well equipped kitchen, kitchen, bedroom and living area clean and spacious. Helpful, friendly staff. As we didn’t have a car we arrived at the front of the hotel and found we needed to carry our luggage up stairs where there was a lift to the next floor. We were unaware that we had to negotiate stairs to our room. We are both in our 70s, could do it now but in the near future maybe not. A studio apartment that we saw did not have this problem but was a lot smaller. Definitely stay here again.

Excellent location

Great location, clean, easy to deal with and great off street parking.

Nice big room for a family of 3 & perfect location for dawn service in Newcastle

We had the one bedroom apartment which is absolutely huge. It has two outdoor seating areas on opposite sides of the unit. Access to your unit, the building, and the garage are all a single code to remember. The elevator is quick, though there are only 3 levels (garage, lobby, rooms). The one bedroom apartments are strange in that you have to enter the code at two different entry doors before heading up a staircase to reach your living space. The rewards of the living space more than offset the quirkiness of getting to it.

Perfect location for access to restaurants and nightlife, secure parking, beautifully appointed room

Easy and secure parking, very comfortable and secure

The apartment we were originally given had a staircase we didn’t want to climb, as we are both in our eighties. Staff quickly arranged another one for us without any bother. Although a bit noisy, as on the street side, we loved the apartment. It is next door to the gym, but no one used it while we were there. Suppose it might be noisy during the week. Location was perfect. We walked everywhere. 13 minutes to a wonderful restaurant for dinner (Jana), with a lovely walk back along the river. 160 metres to a great cafe for breakfast (Autumn Rooms). There are so many great places to eat very close by. Nice friendly staff.

Narrow, steep stairs. Two lifts - no one to help us. We took the wrong one. Kitchen shown as comprehensive in the photo; but no frying pan or spatula. Second garage door closed too quickly whilst we were still reading instructions.

Close to everything in the city. Walking distance to restaurants and cafes.

Huge living space and fantastically located.

The hotel was in a very convenient position so we were able to park the car and leave it for the length of our stay and move around by foot or light rail. We also enjoyed catching the ferry to Stockton. The staff were friendly and the room comfortable and clean.

Massive living area - lovely and clean

Room was very clean, not a big room, but enough space for 2. Balcony was enclosed without a view and at the back of the property. Great location with easy walks to bar's and cafe's and just a short walk to the upgrade Art Gallery.

Friendly and efficient check in. Great sized room - very clean and well set out. Really liked the location - right in the heart of Darby Street, close to lots of cafes, restaurants and shops. Will definitely stay again when we’re next in Newcastle.
