We've been staying at GSH for over 20 years. Its got so much going for it in terms of location, friendly, welcoming staff and always clean and tidy rooms. However, the actual beds, that this time I paid $200 for on a Wednesday night, don't seem to have been updated since we first stayed in the early 2000s. It was the most uncomfortable, painful sleep that I've experienced in some time. For goodness sake, update your mattresses or charge what they are worth! Adding a chiro bill to the accomodation cost is not a desired outcome.

Warning. Not a 4 star hotel. Best described as a high class hostel. Plexiglass reception. Random man sleeping in a chair 24 hours. Dirty bar. Sparse room but had some nice updates. Best quality was clean bathroom. A 2 star hotel is a generous rating.
