Satisfactory Stay

helpful receptioncentral locationfrozen fridgerandom drilling
The reception staff were helpful. They directed me to a great coffee house for breakfast. The location is central to the tram and train. This makes it easy to get around, and the price was affordable.
The fridge froze everything. I could not find the temperature dial, frustrating. I think they are doing upgrades. I could hear drilling at random times of the day

the location proved convenient. i found myself close to both shops and trams, perfect for exploring. the beds were comfortable, a welcome feature after long days, and the staff were indeed helpful. i would choose this place again next time.
i noticed the air con vents had accumulated dust. the gym was not equipped well, and i missed having some extra equipment. access to water was limited, something i would have liked to see more readily available.

The hotel is very close to Flinders Street train station. Trams are also very close, along with restaurants. The blockout curtains worked very well. The room was a reasonable size. The 24/7 reception was very convenient.
The card reader sometimes didn't work in the elevator.

The location was very convenient. It was close to many restaurants. The room was well-appointed and modern, which I appreciated. the hotel validated parking, and it made it $25 overnight at Galleria.
I did find that a discount card was given for a cafe nearby! It wasn't open on weekends when I was there.
