Second time staying here and my husband and I got to use the exact same room we wanted at request which was great. The facilities are quite basic but it's value for money if you're mostly planning to go out to the nearby shops, restaurants, the casino or other places in Hamilton CBD and then want a lovely bed to sleep and relax in later. It could use a bit of a better cleaning service as we noticed a lot of built up dust behind the bedside tables but otherwise the sheets, bathroom & towels were all lovely & definitely sanitary. The decor of the VR is also quite beautiful with the high ceilings & color pallete. Thanks again for another wonderful stay.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The back entrance to the property was dirty and revolting. The hallways were unclean towards the main desk. Staff were friendly. The room smelt of stale smoke and was not welcoming. Corridors had no air movement and weren’t pleasant smelling. Holes in doors, torn carpet. The elevator needs repairing and the staircase was unclean, smelt awful.
