Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The shower had no door, just a curtain which leaked water into the room including the carpet. The room smelled damp and gross. It worked for a quick 2 night stay in a great location but would rather spend a bit more money for something better in the future. Also, I forgot a small pocket size mirror and after confirming they found it, they refused to hold on to it for 2 weeks until I came back.
Although the hotel location was great and our room was quiet, maintenance was neglected. With no tea towel to wash cups for a second drink, sugar was lacking and not filled (had to get more twice), no rubbish bin in the room or bathroom, no power point in the bathroom, which had the only mirror, making it hard to get ready.
The walls leading to the room from the lifts and inside our room were damaged by the lack of care from what I assume were laundry trollies; however, it was odd that these laundry trollies were filled and left in the hallways, making it hard to walk down with luggage.

Everything was as expected for my stay. Nice big room which was clean, the shower was okay. Breakfast was basic but adequate.
Staff were lovely, friendly and accommodating especially Sean and Anup. The hotel has good facilities and is very convenient for visiting Melbourne city.
Only one pillow on each bed, normally there is two bed so I did have to ask for an extra one but that was okay just a bit surprised. The bed lights attached to the bed were broken and did not work. The little window in the room that’s a lot of light in so this was quite frustrating. And lastly the small countertop was dirty when I first arrived into the room. (Sticky marks from juice?)
The whole building could do with a refurb, it’s kind of dirty and the flooring is quite stained. Overall a little bit pricey for what you get.
The room was smallish but clean. No cooking facilities except for a kettle. However , this is certainly not a negative comment but room is only big enough for 1, maybe 2 persons.
First impression of hotel was not wecoming. The room had no opening windows,the non opening window had pigeons roosting outside. No curtain on window. The bed sloped to one end. No bedside tables and no facility to hang clothes. The toilet cistern ran all night. Breakfast was unappealing. We did not stay to eat. I reported all these faults to the lady at reception,and asked for refund just for breakfast but was told she couldn't because i had booked through Expedia. This does not deserve the star rating.
Location is good.Limited breakfast choices.
Stuff said they are there 24 hours,I had an early flight and looked for someone at the front desk at 4AM.
After waiting for a while,I realized they are not there like they said.
