Do not be fooled. This is absolutely NOT a 5 star hotel. While the lobby looks fresh and well styled, the rooms are old, dated, uninspiring, and most importantly dirty & damaged. What a disgrace! I moved twice upon check-in, in search of a clean room, but after seeing 3 different rooms, I realised (much to my horror) that it wouldn’t matter how many rooms I saw, they would all look the same. The...

If you are a light sleeper it is probably best to avoid the CBD for ...

Came back and just did a couple of spots so tol...

The restaurant is good, but service is a little clunky and each day there was generally a small hiccup; it would be great if there were some ...

Overall, the ...
