Hotel is dull, drab, dated, impersonal, & characterless. Good CBD location & excellent WiFi. Kept awake until 01:30 on Friday & Saturday nights due to very noisy nearby disco bar.
Malcolm, 2-night trip

Sometimes it was noisy, and you could hear people talking next door or in the hallways. But overall good accommodation and everything is nearby.

Great hotel close to the centre of Darwin. Be warned, the informaton about wifi is misleading. Certain parts of the hotel and some rooms will not have access to wifi. I was only on the 2nd floor and i couldn’t use the free wifi.
