Last night in Australia on our honeymoon
Pros:

Location was very good for the rail links, but sadly due to maintenance of the railway we had to use bus transfers. Good to see a safe in the room and good facilities to make tea and coffee.

Cons:

Although we were on the 18th floor we had to endure the noise of cars and motorbikes using the streets as a racetrack throughout the evening and night. Not to sure why the police aren't doing anything to stop this antisocial behaviour.

Very nice but the details you expect for the price didn’t meet expectations
Pros:

Very comfortable beds, nice food and pleasant staff

Cons:

The room was dusty - more evident when you opened the blinds

The shower screen looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in a while, there was a lot of soap scum on the glass.

The vent above the toilet was caked in thick layer of dust

The plug for the bath didn’t fit the whole I had to use the one from the sink

The wait for reception to check in was long and their were staff at other counters that could have helped but just stood there.
