The self service check in was a bit "weird" at first, but actually was quite quick and easy. The bed was excellent. If you like a harder more supportive mattress, this is the place for you. That and it was larger than most King beds and I got a great night sleep. Would recommend and would return.

Hotel was what it was … I booked a standard room - as a single traveller it suited my purposes for two nights. Walks are paper thin so you get to join in next rooms’ conversations. Nothing in the hotel appeared to be open but not a problem. Was disappointed to be told no late check out available even with a fee while I was able to book two rooms immediately in Expedia - was told Expedia often oversell rooms … first that has ever happened … apart from that inconvenience a great location if you like food and shopping …

This is our usual go-to choice when staying in Melbourne (2x Adults with 1x Child). But their recent change of only servicing your room every three days means that a weekend away will not allow you to experience a 'new room' feeling when arriving back from your daily travels. This is making me feel like we stayed in a Motel rather than a CBD Hotel.
