Great location for where I needed to go to the ICC theatre. Staff were nice and accommodating. Rooms were very clean and beds comfortable. Was a little disappointed , lots of rust in the pool area. Had trouble connecting to the chromecast even after following instructions provided.

I enjoyed our stay, friendly staff, good facilities and comfy beds. I wish it more obvious upon booking that there is no parking. Was not expecting to pay an additional $45 for parking off-site and walking with our luggage. There were some minor cleaning issues… hair in bathroom, kitchen dusty but otherwise good. Ducted air con didn’t seem to work well and even on lowest setting room still quite hot. Otherwise I enjoyed our stay!

When arrived at property check in went well, got to our room which was small, smelly and dirty, with a view of a run down old building and rubbish yard. Went back to reception and said I booked a balcony suite and it took 1 hr to have correct room. Bedding was so uncomfortable and horrible. Blanket was simply a flat sheet and doona insert and another flat sheet on top. Pillows were like a bag of torn up materials. Location ok. Balcony suite eh better than the original room. Pool was meant to be heated to 28 degrees how ever felt maybe 18. Spa felt 120 degrees. Staff were nice and helpful. Room/facilities/Hotel 5/10.

Located close to China town and easy to get to light rail to get round the city; can’t beat the location of the hotel. However, lack of soundproofing means you can hear the traffic and people in the street outside and even the birds in the early hours; not so great for sleeping. When we checked in we weren’t told anything about the hotel amenities so we didn’t eat there or use the pool.
