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!

I loved Buckle! They happily received and held a parcel for me that was accidentally deliver days before my arrival. The communication before my arrival was fast. The staff and property was wonderful. I do wish they had loaner umbrellas, but that would be my only critique.

Good things are location and friendly staff. BUT... Hotel is very overpriced. The space is extremely tight (especially for more than one person). no window that opens. The air conditioning was inefficient, making it either too hot or too cold. It has a kitchen, but you have no place to sit, the bathroom was also very dark and the sink was clogged. No water bottle even on the first day..no coffee machine. They consider themselves an Eco-friendly hotel but put tea in plastic bags to customers.. I don't recommend the place.

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.
