I loved spending time in Canberra but I wouldn't stay at the Sebel Civic Canberra again.
Pros:

Good location.

Cons:

There were dirty marks on the walls, mold in the corner of the shower, rubbish bins being picked up at 5:30 am on Friday morning, no streaming services.

Overall it was spotlessly clean and quite comfortable
Pros:

I liked that it was a 1 bedroom apartment, situated close to all amenities.
The rooms were well set up for people with disabilities.

Cons:

No on site parking, there is a drop off area if you were lucky to get a spot, paid parking was near by.
The air conditioning was very loud as was the fridge.

Not a great experience
Pros:

Don’t know that I did

Cons:

I did not like that I had to move rooms because tv did not work also did not like how far u have to park your car away and I did not like that when I went to go home early I had to wait with my your daughter in the lobby with a homeless man asleep on the lounge area where u have to walk past and we had to wait near him why my husband had to walk for the car we stayed in hotel for reason they need security on to stop people getting in
The whole stay was not great will not stay there again
