Good location and nice to have all the amenities in the room including a balcony, kitchen facilities and washer and dryer (although we didn’t use these on our short stay). There is a small window in the bedroom that doesn’t have a blind which let sunlight in before we wanted to be awake. It would be good to have a second luggage rack for two people and the wardrobe was quite small and awkward to access behind the bedroom door. The lounge was a bit uncomfortable to sit on as it was a sofa bed. The lighting in the bathroom was terrible for doing makeup. We had a nice view towards Southern Cross station and it was easy to access transport to explore Melbourne. The suggestion to attend a 90 minute presentation (seemed like a timeshare type push) on checkin to get a free breakfast and voucher was a bit odd and we were glad there was no follow up. While we didn’t use them, the gym and library facilities looked good - hotel guests would be sharing these with building residents.
