Had to wait to check in and check out due to no staff manning the desk. Had a $20 charge on my card with no explanation, was it for car parking?

Pros:

Close to southbank. Friendly, flexible staff. Free, plentiful parking.

Cons:

Sooo noisy. Others say the location is great. This is like saying that a house built on the runway is handy to the airport! There are 2 heliports at the hospitals next door. We were woken a few times around 2 to 4am by landing aircraft. Also there is a motorway and about 3 major arterial roadways next door (it is literally on an island of major roadways). The building is so old it has zero noise insulation so old drunk mate next door woke us constantly after coming home at 2am and watching tv (paper walls). The windows make no difference to the outside noise. Closed or open makes no difference.

Close to hospital so of course you’ll hear the occasional siren but the room was fairly soundproof
