Clean and Comfortable

I found the room equipped with all the essentials for a pleasant stay. The bathroom was tidy, and the bed linens were clean, which made for a comfortable experience overall. I truly appreciated having a fridge and ample hot water available. The air conditioning worked great, too!

Pleasant Surprise at Breakfast

I was pleasantly surprised by the complimentary breakfast offered over the weekend. It saved us a good amount of money and the options were quite decent. A nice perk during our stay that allowed for a relaxed start to our days.

Hot Water and Cleanliness

The water pressure in the shower was fantastic, and I was grateful for the hot water. The bathroom itself was clean, making my stay much more enjoyable. It's essential to have these basics covered, and they did not disappoint.

The hotel's ground floor rooms are not up to modern 5-star standards and come with noise disturbances from various sources. Despite this, the service is friendly and accommodating, and the location offers easy tram access and proximity to amenities. The dining options are somewhat limited, and some facilities have restrictions on access. Overall, a mixed experience with room for improvement.

The hotel is clean with good amenities and in a great location, close to the city and port, surprisingly quiet. Rooms were much different from what was advertised, suggesting to spend a little more for a better facility. Fully paid when booking, suitable for an overnight stay connecting with a cruise.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of experiences. The rooms, although not as advertised, were clean and quiet with basic amenities and a comfortable bed. However, it was disappointing to learn that the room had not been cleaned for 10 days. Despite this, the location was great, offering easy access to various parts of the city and providing a lovely view of the Melbourne CBD skyline. The dining options were limited to continental or buffet style, without more elaborate cooked dishes, which was a downside. The friendly service was overshadowed by some rude interactions and inconvenient requests. Overall, I would recommend spending a bit more for better facilities elsewhere.

The hotel offered quiet, clean, and well-presented rooms with industrial steel steps at a very reasonable price. However, the initial impression of the service was marred by seeing dirty laundry upon entry, though this improved by the end. The location was in a nice, quiet neighborhood, great for longer stays or preparing meals, but had issues with credit card processing for security deposits. The dining experience lacked cooked a la carte options but was satisfactory overall. The facilities were adequate but would benefit from updates.
