Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
We liked the proximity from the hotel to our son’s place nearby. We also like the Asian cuisine and grocery shopping in the Footscray areas which you can either walk or drive from the hotel.
The parking area at the back of the hotel is rather convenient but can be a little tricky in the evening. Obviously the hotel restaurant is quite popular with locals so we found that out on Saturday night. We had to park on the street and wait until after 9 p.m. for the spot in the hotel car park.
If you are a light sleeper like myself you might hear the sound of the traffic on the roads faintly.
Overall it was a pleasant stay for us.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Nothing to like. I have been in hotels in over 30 countries but this is the only one where the toilet bowl leaked onto the floor when flushed. Horrible.
Noisy, air conditioning not cooling very well, toiletries very basic, windows cannot open, lots of steep stairs, no wifi info, no staff present, over priced for what it is.
