Unfortunately this Locke location is feeling a bit worse for the wear despite being new and having modern design. There were dents and scuffs all over the walls, the curtains were dirty, and there were stains on the couch. I also found the staff to be a little unfriendly. It’s really a shame because the property has such a cool design aesthetic and it’s in a very good location. I hope they can turn it around!

It was spacious and comfortable, we were only staying for the one night but both agreed it was somewhere we would stay again. The room was well kept, I had a minor frustration with the cast function on the TV but this was not a major issue for our stay. Transport connections to the hotel were great, there was plenty in walking distance too.

Entire staff was very helpful and professional. Bathroom was very chic and room had lots of nice amenities like a microwave and refrigerator. Also in a good location and close to several attractions. Would definitely stay there again. Only negative was the that the room was just too small.
