Not bad for the price, however we booked a sky room and got a pretty crap view on level 53, so as others have said be careful. Left a sour taste in mouth so won’t be back. Don’t advertise a lovely view and then give the customer a slight view of the sea surrounded by tall buildings…. The shower leaks all over the bathroom floor and soaks the floor towel, this is not something we want to deal with while on holiday and all it requires is a trim installed on the bottom of the door why is that so hard. A big issue is also getting access into the building when checking in because it is also residential. The doors will not open automatically for you so you have to call management or wait for someone to enter the doors. The hotel is located on the outskirts of the cbd but easy access to the tram and shops. It’s 250m from Melbourne central mall, or 1k to the river & Southbank etc.

The location was great. Very close to the Queen Vic Markets, Melbourne Central and lots of restaurants. The bed was very comfortable. We expected a TV in the main bedroom (there was an aerial port there) but no TV. Just a few little issues like only 3 pieces of cutlery but we were a family of 4, no replacement garbage bags for rubbish a couple of other small things and the noise from the construction at night was annoying. But overall we were happy with our stay and would stay again
