So if your reading this your looking at if you should stay or not and I highly recommend it will make your Darwin trip unforgettable!

The freshness and cleanliness of the hotel + the simple decor of the large room with views out over the harbour. The king bed was so comfortable, as were the arm chairs , + the tea and coffee making area with small fridge was also very convenient. + a desk and chair . The position was very central, and we were able to walk to all places of interest within the city . Woolies about 5 mins away on foot + multiple cafes scattered around within 10 minutes walk. The included breakfast was a simple continental spread, but with a huge selection of cereals, breads and condiments etc ...more than adequate and very well attended to by smiling staff . Highly recommend this spotless and convenient hotel for your stay in Darwin .

Room good except no microwave oven or cutlery in the twin single room unlike the double rooms , which I find strange and inconvenient considering besides the bed arrangement the rooms are identical in size and have the same kitchenette, the only difference is no oven or cutlery to heat up a meal , I shared a room with a work colleague this time in the twin singles . And had to go 5 floors down to heat up a frozen meal which easily could have been done happily in my room like when I stayed on a week's holiday with my my wife over Xmas, when we stayed in the double bed room .

Excellent reception staff who were helpfull and knowledgeable. Although there is no cooked breakfast the selection of cereals, fruit juices, bread of various types was more than sufficient to start the day. The rooms are larger than many I have stayed in and paid more per night for. The hotel was within easy walking distance of downtown Darwin (15-20 mins) Wifi was good strength and reasonably fast. Adequate TV channels for my taste. Problem with leaky aircon was dealt with within 30mins! Quiet neighbourhood.

Room was a good size. Nice little balcony. Laundry facilities great (washng machines and dryers) very welcome after a week around Kakadu. Complimentary light breakfast was more than adequate. Location is a way from the waterfront but its walkable mostly in shade. Ubers and taxis easily obtained from the hotel. Bus stop to Mindle beach (markets (Thurs/Sun) is about a 200 metre walk from the hotel. The staff happily stored our bags on our transfer day.
