Four Points by Sheraton Perth
"The breakfast was fantastic, tea at night average. Bar was good $8 pints Hann Super Dry 3.5, no Happy Hour due to RAC Arena having an event they said, not sure why that has anything to do with it. We had a room 2nd level facing arena, pretty noisy, good price though for room including breakfast."
