Work Family balance, done well
Business trip with family, super comfortable apartment style room with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Comfy couch, perfect table for dinner and spreading out documents for work. Separate rooms so children can sleep while the parents keep working, perfect arrangement. 25 m pool for those who need to fit in a few laps and a well equipped Gym to make up for screen time. To that, add that it was quiet enough to get a great sleep and with a view of the harbour from the terrace, felt like a home away from home. Thanks :).

Room was really nice… once we got in there. Waited at least 15 mins to even start check in, had to pay for parking on top of the $650 room rate, and then couldn’t get inside the building from the car park because they had faulty swipe card readers

Lighting circuit not working for 3 down lights in lounge. Air-conditioning needing servicing so couldn't turn on the bedroom one. The room is a weird shape and therefore cramped in parts needing to climb over furniture to access other parts of the room.

Location is excellent, however, we booked 1 night and another 2 nights the following week (all booked before we arrived in Melbourne) and realised immediately that the rooms were run down. Needs painting etc. 1st night room the tv remote didn’t work in the bedroom, you can’t get toilet roll with ease as it is tucked in behind you on the left hand side of the basin, no face washer supplied, no milk and no English Breakfast Tea Bags. Following week 2 nights same room 1 floor above, tv didn’t work at all in bedroom, reported to reception and advised he would send someone up to fix problem, waited for couple of hours, no one showed up, went back to reception and spoke to same man and he said he will get someone to call our room in a few minutes. Never heard from anyone, and all the same problems from the 1st night. We paid good money for a 1 bedroom apartment (king size) with a tv in bedroom and it was broken and they didn’t careless. Other than that the lady on both occasions who we checked in with was lovely and courteous.

Great location. However, toilet roll holder in bathroom was NOT EASY to access. There was NO facewasher in bathroom which is a must for females and the remote in bedroom didn’t work. Other than that, the location was great and the staff were very helpful and friendly.
