The hotel room had very good lighting and was quiet despite facing Queens Rd. However, maintenance issues like broken lights and faulty sliding doors were noticeable. The location was great for accessing transport to the CBD or St Kilda, with a nice view and comfy beds. The dining experience offered a good variety but seemed overpriced. The service was quite helpful and efficient, though the shabby appearance was not ideal.

The hotel had a prime location with easy access to the central city and a beautiful lake view. The rooms were old and lacked individual air conditioning, but some offered nice views and double beds. The service was helpful but required a supervisor for certain queries. The dining experience was satisfactory, offering sliced tropical fruits. Despite some issues, the price was fair for the value provided.
