Monbahus Vacations from $391

Super, will start here again. It has personality and the price is reasonable.

Excellent family room, kids loved the bunkbeds but the lower one did get hot as it faced the window and far from the air con. Cool room with great views of the station if you're a trainspotter which our son is. Sensible to have amenities like coffee machine and ironing board shared in the hall as these are barely used, which frees up space in the room. Slightly style over substance as there are records and CD's in the room for decoration (nothing to play them on) taking up space needed for putting our stuff on. But it was cool and a fun layout. The pool is small and surrounding sun loungers are prone to getting splashed with water as it's quite cramped but amazing to fit it all there and have a rooftop space and bar. Location is 20 min walk from downtown for dinner etc, but a short bus or tram ride away so easy to get to and the tram ride has good views along the river. Breakfast was great quality and varied, although it was quiet when we stayed so some items had been out for a while and not served at their best.

Tiny rooms. No aircon but did have a ceiling fan and also a Dyson fan in the room but despite this it was still extremely warm in the summer when we were there. Great location for exploring the city and perfectly suitable for a couple of days.
