Their communication needs to improve. Asked reception to send housekeeping in the morning, only to return and ask again. House keeping on the first day did nothing other than just making the bed. Property is excellent but the service not so much

It was a great property for a couple nights for me (solo traveler). They allowed me to drop off my bags at the property in the AM when I arrived before the unit was ready (securely behind front desk). Location was excellent for the Australian Open Tennis, walking to Crown Casino and enjoying all the great restaurants in the area. I was very happy with the value! Thanks for a great stay!

Great location being across from Woolworths and BWS. Great price and view for New Year’s Eve. Only and I mean only downside of this hotel being no parking and street parking only having a 3 hour meter.

Great views and a decent stay

The view from the hotel was amazing. The beds were comfy and the shower was good. However, the kitchen needs a deep clean and the hotel was in average shape. It’s an odd place - half hotel and half apartments with full-time residents. The pool area is much smaller in photos. while there were less than 10 people outside, there was nowhere to sit. Gym was small but good. They also had a mini theatre. I probably would not stay there again due to cleanliness but it did have amazing views.

More cons than pros unfortunately. Pros - friendly staff, well appointed room with all conveniences, comfy bed and pillows, close to Southbank. Cons - surface clean but otherwise dirty, our room desperately needed a deep clean and a repaint, noisy despite double glazed windows (hard to stop noise when your hotel is right next to the West Gate Fwy), rubbish everywhere outside hotel entrance. Not a 4 star hotel at present, won’t be staying again sorry.

Housekeeping didn’t come clean the room the first couple of days. On the last night it rained and the bedroom smelt very mouldy. Pillows weren’t the best. However the view was really nice from the 35th floor.
