great locationmany optionsbad showermore security

The Hotel location was good. It was far enough from the busy center so i could enjoy some quiet. I could easily walk to the dfo and southern cross station. The breakfast was also fine with many options.

The shower, was not good at all. I constantly changed from cold to very hot. Also ANYONE can just walk inside and access any floor. I'd expect A bit more security.
