A recent make-over on these rooms, makes them quite pleasant, on the surface, but a bit cheaply done. Splurging on an extra lcd tv in the bedroom would've saved us moving the furniture around, for when we wanted to lie in and watch morning tv. Kitchenette has all the basics. The aircon was dodgy, so fans were supplied. That in... More

I booked the hotel based on its location which is great, 1 min walk and you're in the middle of the main shopping areas. Although the website says there is some construction going on next door what it should say is there is a massive hole in the ground next door. The site starts about 6am every day but Sunday... More

Handle fell of bedroom window opener, very old analogue tv with a remote that did not work properly, badly marked walls and stained carpet.

We booked this hotel as a last minute stay in the city for Australia Day to see the fireworks.I didn't look on Tripadvisor before I booked.I probably wouldn't have booked if I had read the reviews.

Dear Guest I have read your review - and I am sorry you had such a bad experience, and maybe a bit of bad luck as well. As you mentioned the first thing you came across were the 2 gaps in the ceiling. They were there for an obvious reason - we had a severe leak from the pipes running... More

We booked a five night stay at this hotel before reading the many negative reviews, so arrived there on 12th December with some apprehension. There is extensive construction work in progress next door which looks set to continue for some time, but we didn't find that this spoiled our stay at all. We had a front-facing 2nd floor room and...

We booked in following a special Internet offer. We booked and paid up front. A few days later we did some research on trip advisor and saw all the negative comments regarding noise, cleanliness, and problems other guests had experienced. We were very concerned and emailed the hotel seeking some reassurance about these issues. We received a prompt reply addressing... More

Dear Guest Thank you for taking the time to write your feed back. Spacious apartments in this fantastic location is definately our biggest asset. Unfortunately, being in the heart of the city also means that there is occasionally noise. The construction-site next to us has very stricy working hours and there is no noise during the night.

It has a great location though, just behind the old GPO in Little eeeBourke Street and close to everything. We stayed on the 5th floor in a room with a loft bedroom. It also had a... More
