Staff were lovely and welcoming. Room was ok, but lots of blown lights, so was poorly lit. Shower and bathroom floor were also exceptionally slippery. Location was great snd central.

Central, great dining and shopping options, clean and friendly staff
It was perfect for the one night that I needed. I arrived very late and enjoyed the fact that they have 24hr front desk clerks for check ins.
I was able to park on the street nearby. Though I got lucky.

I loved staying at the Olsen. The staff were helpful, it was clean and had an upmarket feel despite being reasonably priced. The lollies at reception were a bonus. I will return for another stay.
