I think the first thing that hits you is the retro-style of the entire place, room included, but eventually you get used to it. It's a nice place. The place is clean: rooms are clean, bathroom and showers are clean. It's a quiet place, even if there is the bar downstairs, but that's not a problem, because from your room you are quite isolated from the noise. It is located right in front of the Central Market and really close to the CBD and a 10 minute from the airport by taxi. You can reach the bus station with a 5-minutes-walk

I don't have any complaint, but if there is something that can be improved, it's the furniture inside the room. No problems to me by the way.

Friendly staff, nice old hotel, great location. Clean, comfortable room and importantly, great sound buffering from the 'music' downstairs... I thought to myself that when you stay upstairs at a pub, you can get some chatter in the hallway, some conversation outside - that's to be expected - and some pretty loud music downstairs - and I was right! Death metal group Demon Pig was 'playing' downstairs from 9 pm... The obscenity laden 'lyrics' were all too audible from the common bathroom, sounding something like a truck crash, an explosion and a broken down washing machine all in one. But once inside my room the 'music' faded to a quiet rumble, like traffic in the distance. With the help of an early start, I slept like a baby. So it's actually a positive, having slept through Demon Pig, I could have slept through anything! But other than Demon Pig, I really liked the place, and I'll probably be back for such a clean, comfortable and convenient place to stay, at a great price... But I might check who's playing that night.

I must admit I'm not the greatest fan of Demon Pig.

great location and the pub is awesome. perfect for my needs to have a central base on a budget. Bands playing meant free entertainment and a lively atmosphere I didn't feel the need to leave on Saturday night although I has planned to go to a bar or club, in the end I stayed put and had a great night!

the shower-over-bath is not ideal for me with mobility constraints and you really need to bring thongs. Being shared means you have to wait around to use the bathroom and toilet or walk around to other parts of the accommodation with fingers crossed. But that's what you get in the budget end and I knew that up front.

The room was excellent, with a nice veranda to enjoy outside. The bar and dinner area were superb and we could enjoy amazing food and very nice cold beer. The location of the hotel was fantastic and so easy to catch the 98C bus to explore the city. There was a fridge in the room where we could keep water and some fruit, etc cold

It was difficult to share a bathroom and toilet. The space in front of the bath could do with something to stand on when you get out of the bath or shower. A coffee-station in the room would be nice or at least a kettle with mugs, teaspoons, etc to make an early coffee or tea.

I gave it a 9/10 overall... When you consider the price it has to be at least a 9. It is well-run and it is exactly what I expected- probably a bit better than what I expected. This is my second time staying here and it does the job- it is not the most glamourous hotel you've ever been to but it doesn't claim to be. I'll be back ... for sure!

Nothing. For the money I paid, it exceeded my expectations. You know what? I'm gonna go back and rate it a 10. I like this place.

Does look a bit dodgy but it’s cheap, clean, has great staff, and you can’t beat the location. It’s next to the theatre, opposite the market, and a two min walk from China down. Surprisingly quiet too despite being on top of a pub. They have a washing machine and dryer too, $3 each ($1 coins).

There’s some renovations going on which was quite loud during the day

It was central and able to get around without transport. Good value for money.

Wonderful location which is why I booked it. Directly across from Central Market and just around the corner from King William Street and it’s shops. A short walk to the central railway station. Room was a little smaller than the photos indicated with only a single bed but certainly adequate. I upgraded to a room with balcony and so glad I did. Popped across the road for morning caffeine hit which I enjoyed on the balcony whilst listening to music and reading. Perfect start to the day! Had a few drinks out the front with a couple of mates….very pleasant. Staff were great. Will book there again.

Room a little small and thought I was getting a double instead of a single bed but not a major drama.

The location was very good and the staff where very helpful and friendly the room and bathroom was very clean this hotel is good for a quick overnight stay even a few nights

I'm not a fan of shared bathrooms however that's what u expect in a pub I did have a queen room with a double bed maybe staying in one of the single rooms might be a different experience however I didn't find anything I didn't like about my stay

Perfect location for a brief stay in the CBD. Close to most major central attractions, events, and public transport. Staff were all very friendly and accommodating and facilities on-site are ample (rooms, bathrooms, food and drink, etc.).

No real noise from the venue itself (even on live music nights) however city traffic and significant construction taking place nearby may disrupt some travelers.
