The hotel is in a convenient location, close to public transport into Melbourne and ideal for travelers from the countryside. The rooms were a bit small but clean and the staff were friendly and helpful. The dining experience was pleasant with a variety of options, and the free parking was a bonus. However, the room service was not provided during the day despite indications otherwise.

The hotel was a bit of a mixed experience. The rooms were very spacious, comfortable, and clean, but they were smaller than expected and lacked a city view. The service was friendly and courteous overall. The location was convenient for visiting family nearby, but the surroundings looked tired and needed refurbishment. The dining options were decent with a good variety but could use more fresh fruits. However, the facilities were lacking in maintenance.

The hotel offered free wifi, but it was unreliable with frequent disconnections. The shower floor was dangerously slippery, and the shower curtain needed cleaning. Although I booked for 4 people, only 2 towels were provided. Despite these issues, the room size was perfect for my stay.
