We stayed here for 5 days. The hotel is in an absolutely great location. Very good value for money, not one of those fancy five star hotels, but it has been okay.l for what you pay. The buffet breakfast is ok! sufficient for what you need, but they need to add some cheese options and salads. The hygiene of the room was generally good, but there were heaps of dust on the desks and under the beds if you move it by a tiny bit for whatever needs you may have. The parking costs extra but it has been very good and reliable with heaps of parkings available during the week.

The room was tidy and modern. We found the bed to be uncomfortable however we do like more of a medium to soft bed and this was quite hard. Pillows were pretty comfortable. Basic buffet breakfast. We just stayed one night, room was quiet. Great value for money.

This hotel is in a very good location. An easy walk to the MCG. The staff were very professional and the room was clean and tidy. Very basic room with not a whole lot of space. The toilet shower door was odd but I understand its to save space. The free breakfast is convenient but not very nice. I would 100% stay here again no worries. When you arrive take the elevator to level 7 and then when to get to your room level scan your card in the lift and get to your level. You dont need to scan it to go back down.

Nice hotel with excellent rooms, amenities and location. Check-in was smooth and staff were polite. Room was perfect size, large shower and good bathroom. This hotel is largely eco-friendly so I chose my room not to be serviced (2 night stay). Hotel is close to Southgate and Southbank. Was just a really pleasant stay

Conveniently located hotel with off street secure parking available. Rooms are clean & modern and some have nice views of city or parkland nearby. Generally a hotel that’s pretty good value for the location and standard of rooms. Some people might not like the dual purpose bathroom/shower glass door so keep this in mind if you’re sharing with somebody and you need bathroom privacy.
