Pros:

I love the decor, the location, the beds, the lobby.

Cons:

I was disappointed that the parking was full even though I’d pre-booked. This was all very confusing as I couldn’t park out the front to check where to park. I ended up parking at Bourke Street and walking back to Rydges with my bags. I had pre-booked and paid for parking so it didn’t seem right.

Fabulous accomodation.
Pros:

Staff were great as was the twin suite which was very clean. We would stay again.

Cons:

The only small downside - the lounges were not very comfortable to sit and watch TV but we were not there to watch tv.
