Great value for money. The room was very spacious and well appointed. The bed was super comfortable and we had two great nights of sleep. The aircon is a little noisy during the peak heat time of the day, but was tolerable later at night/early morning. I really enjoyed how big the room was, how modern and new it felt.

We had a fantastic couple nights at Alder Inn. Super affordable, VERY comfortable room and bed, great facilities in the room, and AMAZING location round the corner from Whole Foods! The staff were super helpful in advance when I needed to change the booking length, and were in contact every day via messaging to see if we needed anything. Couldn't fault the place at all, and we hope to stay there again in the future - thanks!

We only stayed one night and wish it could have been longer. Easy self check in with a request for an earlier check in accommodated. Room was a good size and spotlessly clean. The fire place was a nice touch and made the room really cosy. We were delighted with this hotel after being on the road for many days/nights. Good location and definitely value for money.

This is a great and cheap option if you're traveling single group of friends, alone, or have a strict budget. I appreciate the e-concierge service. I was able to go straight into the room and get settled immediately. Even provided codes to get supplies. A great self service type of option when you texted what you needed. The staff that was on site was exceptional and helped with whatever we needed as well.
