“The rooms are on the smaller side but all i needed for one night, you get what you pay for. The room had a really good level of cleanliness , including bedding and towels Reception staff were really nice and helpful. The bed was on the firmer side but it was fine. Not the hotels fault but i didnt get a great night due to the person in the room next to me showering and repeated toilet flushing between 11:30pm and 12:30am which woke me, i suppose the walls are on the thinner side. But no noise from outside till nearing 8am.”
“Had a gorgeous stay last in Easy Hotel last night. Bed was super comfy. Room was spotless! Despite being in the centre it was very quiet which I loved! Was greeted by Anjali at reception and was able to leave my bag in early as check in was much later. When I checked in Kim greeted me and was very informative about things to do around the city a was very accommodating. Finally when I checking out Rachel at reception was super friendly!”
“Rachel and Anjelie went above and beyond to make sure I was well taken care of here and comfortable. I was apprehensive of entrusting my bags to the hotel while I walked around, but Rachel reassured me and went the extra mile to make sure I was comfortable and secure. Everything was perfect! Comfortable stay! Would absolutely stay again!”
“Wasn’t planning on giving a review up until after our stay but Violeta’s amazing customer service has bumped it up on the first day! Giving professional and prompt service with a smile, my wife and are just very impressed on how she is representing herself and the business. Location is great as it’s near to pretty much everything you need. Room may be a bit cramped but the cleanliness alone more than makes up for it!”
“Had a great stay, room was quiet with an easy to use thermostat and Maria at checkout was very friendly and helpful, as was all staff. Perfect for an overnight stay or a weekend, though the room was a bit small for the 6 six nights I stayed, as there was no fridge and not many surfaces or storage for clothes. Otherwise an allround pleasant stay :)”
“It’s rare that I take time to leave a review, but exceptional service from the staff during my short stay. Kim on the front desk in particular, who went out of his way to help me source a phone charger with a smile on his face, and was extremely helpful and friendly in general. Likewise, Violeta, who was more than happy to assist with booking a taxi amongst other demands. Sometimes it’s the little things that count. Great service.”
