A great apartment hotel in Melbourne. Will definitely stay here again. Booked a premium one bedroom apartment and asked for a high floor. Was given the top floor. The front desk staff were excellent. Great communication and very welcoming. A little road noise from outside, but to be expected in the heart of a city. Bathrooms were outdated but exceptionally clean nevertheless. Comfortable bed with premium linens. Could do with higher quality towels.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Rooms are big and very clean. Pool was a little too cool but good. Breakfast was great. Parking was good and cheaper if you are a member, but not enough spaces on Level 5 which makes it inconvenient to use the lift 5 to get directly into hotel/ room. You have to go to ground and walk to the outside. Staff were all helpful. Only negative was the shower is in the bath.
