Stay was good. Only problem was there was a couple of loud knocks in the door and an Asian guy just burst in without me even answering and asking if I needed any house keeping. This properly clearly states that housekeeping isn't offered and that towels and or sheets are available on request from reception

Location was excellent but the hotel in general did not give a clean and pristine look about it. The stairs in the foyer were not clean. The room we were in was dirty. It needed a deep clean. The shower surround was mouldy. The crockery was not consistent. There was only one tall drinking glass. One day our apartment had not been serviced when we returned at 5:00pm. We had to go back down to reception and made a complaint. Towels were replaced soon after but no cleaning done. The bed was far too soft, no substance and pillows to soft to lay on. Also the wifi was intermittent. Not good enough.

We enjoyed our 2 night stay at Imagine Marco. It had everything we wanted and was on Southbank. We were comfortable and safe. Staff were friendly and the facilities were clean.

Location great. My apt needed a good clean. Shower surround mouldy. Skirtings filthy & dusty. Bed far too soft. Some days I rec’d full towel service ie towels, facecloths, hand towels & foot towel. Other days we only got half of the towels. We had to get more from reception. Also need a clothes rack for drying. Some clothes cannot go in dryer.

The negative about the stay: No Netflix on tv Staff seemed inconvenienced by the smallest requests eg- can I please borrow an umbrella or have another blanket for the bed as freezing day with pouring rain. The heating does not come into one of the bedrooms so was very cold. There is minimal kitchen supplies and they are all in the draw dirty. There is 2 balcony areas and neither have chairs or small table to sit outside. Carpark is $25 per night when a short walk to crown is $18. The first day we get there, they close the pool and gym for a week saying it’s due for maintenance. They asked for every guests ID and took a copy upon checking in. I’ve stayed in better hotels that never even did this. It’s very odd. Positive - Woolworths across the road. Walking distance to crown.
