Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
We liked that the accommodation was in the central city and easily walkable to shops, restaurants and surrounding areas. The beds were very comfortable. Although we were aware that the VR is a very old building, and relatively inexpensive, the decor of the place is also very old and rundown. There was paint and wallpaper peeling off and signs of water damage was evident (we couldn't smell dampness though). With it being central city, you do get a fair bit of noise from the street - due to old building/no double glazing etc.

A grand old hotel, huge rooms, but past its heyday. Charged an extra $20 for a shockingly tricky car park. At one minute past 10am we were locked out of our room. Very convenient for local restaurants etc.

Was good value for the price until trying to have a shower. Running hot water was a mission and involved calling the assistance of front desk staff. It was found that the basin hot water tap required to be run in order for hot water to be available at the shower. Was hilarious solution but worked. 😂 Very tired hotel but clean and serviceable otherwise.
