Traveller tip: sleep in the street outside for a better experience. Staff may be more of a depressent than their alcohol (which is great value?) You may be asked to pay twice, and have a 20 minute argument where you'll show receipts and credit card statements, but that's all part of the "pay twice if you're dumb" experience! See photo of the management's solution to a spotlight being pointed directly into a window with a shonky curtain all night - they'll stuff towels into it for you! (You don't pay extra for the towels - a bargain). If you love the sound of screaming trams misjudging the speed for a sharp corner, you'll love this place! While the trams don't run all night, fear not - what the air conditioning lacks in efficacy, it makes up for in sheer volume. Decent bathroom.

So I came to the lounge and bar for food and the girl behind the bar was quite rude. She took my food order at about 4:20pm but didnt bother to tell me that the kitchen was closed until 5pm. After I waited a while for my food I went back to the bar to ask where the food was to a different lady behind the bar and she said that the kitchen was closed. She asked the girl who took my order if she told me that and she was no coz I thought she shouldve known because shes staying here. I wasnt staying there and she knew that because when I asked her earlier for the Wi-Fi password she said only people staying at the hotel can have the password so she cant give it to me. It was like she was unnecessarily trying to be difficult. How am I meant to know the kitchen is closed if I dont get told??!!
