Perfect for a short stay
Pros:

Close to CBD, quiet, comfortable and spacious thanks to an upgrade. The heated 20 m pool was excellent as was our evening sunset drinks and meals. Nice view!

Cons:

Parking was hit and miss. We had a minor altercation with a delivery driver. Perhaps some clearer traffic signs needed?

Would recommend staying here if you're wanting someone decently priced and near the city.
Pros:

Staff were lovely and responsive, happy to help and followed up about little details with my staff. Shout out to
Room was spacious and clean mostly with a hard bed. I think it's Quinsam?
Plenty of facilities like a gym and pool which is nice.
Wi-Fi was great (paid extra) so I was able to use it easily.
Had nice complimentary like coffee and tea.
Had a nice restaurant on the roof that had decent food.
Location decent to the city particularly if you have a car and has parking onsite.
Within walking distance to bus and trams.
Quiet area and near the city so nice location.

Cons:

Room was mostly clean except the toilet wasn't cleaned thoroughly.
TV only had regular TV options and didn't have access to connect your own streaming services which was disappointing.
Walls were thin and I could hear the person next door on the phone.
Not within walking distance to a supermarket (except a little milk bar) but if you have a car, it is great!
