Quest 256 Lambton

Quest 256 Lambton

8/10 Good
"Excellent location right next to the cable car station, Woolworth and MacDonald. Room was nice and clean. To find the right lift was like finding orientation bin a maze. Parking was like a nightmare with very tricky access behind the building and super narrow driveway but at least it was safe and secure."
