It was hard to find in the beginning because the signage was not clearly visible. It was also weird that you need to go up to 2nd level for the reception. Staff were a bit disappointing because they are not as responsive but I guess, they are just doing their job. The room was clean, equipped though a bit small. The food could be better with more selections but for the price, it’s ok. Will I recommend? Definitely. My friend recommended the place to me so I will. A plus, it was close to a...

Hotel staff extremely pleasant and helpful. Convenient location for my personal desire to be close to Chinatown, Bourke St. Mall and Her Majesty's Theater. Only small problems encountered was that I was not told that there is no room service on Sunday's & Holidays, but subsequently found out that it could be requested, and the king bed room I requested (prepaid) was not available and had to settle for a handicapped room (which I felt was equal to my original reservation request).

I came to drop off my bag since my arrival to Melbourne was so early. Turns out that they had a room already ready at 9am and let me check in. I barely slept on the flight and I was exhausted so this was such a relief and I appreciate their kindness! Plus next day I overslept for the check out but they were nice about it as well. Thank you so much! Very nice hotel with clean rooms and convenient location.
