I believed we paid for a city view. Being only able to see the buildings on the other side of the road is hardly a city view, particularly when the promotional photos show a much grander and wider view.

In Mel to catch up with family. Great location for train, trams, bike hire, bars, pubs etc and to stock appt from supermarket and bottle-o. Reception staff super helpful and everything worked like clockwork. The trainline is close (and noisy to start with) but close the windows and it’s quite acceptable (I’m a light sleeper and no probs). View great from 19th floor. I’d stay again in a heartbeat.

Central location. Beautiful comfy beds but was so noisy on flinders st and constant trains. Bathroom was small but function, liked the walk in shower. Had no sleep due to noise staying in a level 8 room. Room was tidy but cupboards sticky. 1 bedside light didn’t work.

Loved my stay here. Apartment was very clean, reception staff were friendly, and kitchen was very well equipped. I also used the gym which had lots of machines (for an apartment gym) and also great views. The location was fab, not far from the bus station for the airport and close to the restaurants along the river. Honestly I didn’t want to leave
