Clean rooms but for a top end one these are not luxurious really. Some of the gift boxes eg vanity set, sewing kit etc were empty. We had a sticking sliding door and the guest ipad had the previous guest still logged in...not a good look. The staff however were amazing, top quality. They spent time talking and not rushing us and couldnt do enough to help us. They all need a pay rise !. Valet parking was a dream and god send in the CBD.. Due to the staff and friendliness i woukd definatly stay there again but wontbwait 15 years between visits.
