Check in took forever. No instructions on where i could park, the computer at reception had glitches that took over 30 minutes to wiork, there were not enough kitchen related items. Eg i had to call to get a baking dish and when it was brought it, it had a big lable stuck to it which i was not able to remove. I took it to reception and staff were very helpful but took around 20 minutes to soak and scrape off. There were no oven mits and i burned my hand. There was a previous guest that had left her supplements in our fridge, after a few phone calls and her coming in with hotel staff to check our fridge in which she did not find her supplements at the end. I got a room with a kirchen so i could cook but i was not able to at the end. We had to eat out and the meals we ordered were terrible. It all sounds too comical. One more thing, we wanted to go back to the car and literally went to every level to fibd it. The levels are not properly written next to the lifts, eg c3 c2...

Not happy that the rooms are not air conditioned. We came from gold coast because we had no power to have a nice sleep in AC. Very disappointed

Can’t fault the spot as it’s a couple of blocks to everything and the new train station will make it even more convenient. It’s like the other Oaks properties we’ve stated in and the bathroom could do with a tidy up as it’s looking dated. One lift was out of action so sometimes took 10 minutes to get to the ground floor. Not their fault as we discovered they’ve been waiting months for the repairs to be completed. Personally I don’t want to go in a faulty lift up 40 floors so didn’t bother me. All in all fairly clean and tidy and had everything you need for a family. We’d stay there again for sure.

River view apartment had a lovely view of the river and the hinterland, apartment was spacious and fully equipped and very clean, would recommend to anyone but only 1 lift operating means you can wait a long time to get your apartment!

Tired and old
Great location but let down by the overall tiredness of the room. Carpets were worn and the bathroom cleanliness was poor. Definitely in need of refurbishment. Only one lift was operating and with 30 floors it took sometime to get up and down.
