Lovely place. Clean, quiet and within walking distance of every convenience. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Only potential issue was the parking area, which was overflowing the first night, and blocked us in the next morning for a while.

Convenience to the western end of the CBD was a plus. The room has had a few years under it's belt. Bit of a musty smell noticeable when you first enter, probably coming from a bit of water damage on the base of the shower. Overall for the price not bad bang for your buck.

Realky well located, easy walking and on the tram route too. Lots of places to eat nearby. You have to visit Riverside! Had a fab Indonesian meal there. Staff helpful at hotel and good laundry service for 15 dollars a bag.

This is a hidden gem of a place! We stayed in the motel portion behind the B&B and they are very nice and quiet. Plenty of room, stocked amenities in the kitchenette, comfy bed, very hot water, a/c if you need it. Patio doors open to a secluded, sunny area to relax. Hard to find at first with a hidden driveway. We had to drive around the block twice and then just enough spots for the guests. Very walkable to city center. We'd stay here again!

Upper unit in the motel which is behind the B&B. Roomy, clean, nice balcony, well-appointed. We were given an early check-in which we really appreciated. Next door is construction site but it did not intrude on the quiet. Parking on site.

The place was stunning — extremely spacious and clean, easily walkable to everything we were planning to do. The host lacked empathy. We hit an impasse on check in when she had two records for us checking in and I only had one. In the end it was my fault, but as she kept repeating “it’s not my fault” at check in instead of helping me figure out what went wrong was extremely frustrating. Each of our experiences with her were met with a similar lack of empathy, including when she saw me hunting for my gasses and walked away saying “I didn’t know where they are.” I don’t expect to become friends with my host, but these interactions made me feel uncomfortable staying there. I loved the location and the room, again it was my fault, but her lack of caring is what I’ll remember about what us an otherwise wonderful place.

It was listed as having laundry, which is only if you stay longer, but that was likely a misunderstanding of mine from the listing. The TV did not include premium channels (Sky Sports) which was unfortunate as I wanted to watch Women’s World Cup matches taking place in New Zealand. I would have expected they were on channels a hotel would carry. Otherwise, the stay was fine.
