Room was adequately clean. The room we stayed in probably required a deep clean and some general maintenance. Parking was easy enough, however do some research as cheaper parking is available without going through the hotel. Staff were lovely and accommodating. Super easy to use trams and within walking distance to casino, shops and other attractions.

The room was exactly what we needed for two nights in Melbourne. The only slight problem is that we hadn’t realised there would be a lot of noise with the train tracks just outside the room we were in. But other than this, everything was great!
