Easy check-in and check-out. The facilities were clean and beautifully maintained. I loved the privacy of my bed in the shared room. The mattress and pillow were super comfortable, and I had no issues with the hot water in the shower 🤗. I’ll definitely stay here again next time I’m in Canberra! .

“Modern, value for money hotel/hostel”

Modern, friendly hotel/hostel in downtown Canberra within walking distance of shops, bars and restaurants. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. My room was spacious and bright, with plentiful hot water in the bathroom.
