Hi Harrison,
Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. Usually we advise for vehicles that are low or modded to go on an angle to the underground car park and if none, go on an angle up. We hope to see you in the near future.

Form the moment I checked in the staff were amazing. So kind and friendly and went out of their way to be helpful. Every single staff member I met was smiling , friendly, helpful and seemed to enjoy their job
I asked for early check in and I was accommodated without issues
The rooms were comfortable and very clean and the bedding soft and comfortable
There was a small fridge and microwave in the room.
Rydges was walking distance to everything we needed , the strange, coles, and many restaurants.
I am coeliac and they catered for me for breakfast with very helpful support from their chef
I usually stay at the Ville but they had no rooms available which is why I stayed at Rydges and I’ll never go back to the Ville . Rydges has won me over with service and location . Will be back and Thankyou to your staff for looking after us so well

Room in need of update. Only an old shower curtain around small shower. Old air vent in room leading to outside. Check in time was 2pm but room not ready till 4. Certainly not worth the price. Very disappointed
