It was a great property for a couple nights for me (solo traveler). They allowed me to drop off my bags at the property in the AM when I arrived before the unit was ready (securely behind front desk). Location was excellent for the Australian Open Tennis, walking to Crown Casino and enjoying all the great restaurants in the area. I was very happy with the value! Thanks for a great stay!

Great location being across from Woolworths and BWS. Great price and view for New Year’s Eve. Only and I mean only downside of this hotel being no parking and street parking only having a 3 hour meter.

More cons than pros unfortunately. Pros - friendly staff, well appointed room with all conveniences, comfy bed and pillows, close to Southbank. Cons - surface clean but otherwise dirty, our room desperately needed a deep clean and a repaint, noisy despite double glazed windows (hard to stop noise when your hotel is right next to the West Gate Fwy), rubbish everywhere outside hotel entrance. Not a 4 star hotel at present, won’t be staying again sorry.
