The hotel offers clean and bright rooms with basic amenities, but noise from nearby demolition can be bothersome. Opt for a room facing the airport for lovely water views. The staff is friendly and accommodating, although communication could be improved. The location is convenient for exploring Darwin on foot, close to various CBD attractions. The dining options are average, and the facilities provide the necessary amenities for a decent stay.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were nicely appointed with a large bathroom providing lovely views over Darwin. Although the apartment was extremely roomy, it was a bit cold after coming out of the pool. The service was top-notch, with polite and friendly staff offering valuable visitor information. The location was convenient, shaded for most of the day but with easy access to shops and the CBD. The dining experience was decent, although the food could have been hotter and fresher. Overall, a good value for the special deal price and location.

The hotel offers a great location for those who like waterviews, but noise from nearby construction can be bothersome. Rooms are spacious but in need of maintenance. The staff is friendly and helpful despite some issues. The dining options are average, and the facilities are well-equipped.
