My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was great, tucked away in a laneway providing a peaceful environment yet close to the vibrant shopping precincts and dining spots in Melbourne CBD. However, the rooms were not ready upon check-in time, had a leaking bathroom, and were overly congested. The service was friendly and welcoming, but some amenities were not fully available. Dining was enjoyable with a great selection, but slightly pricey. Overall, it was a decent stay with a few drawbacks.

My stay was a mixed bag - the rooms were more spacious and clean than expected, but a bit lacking in amenities like a pod coffee machine. The service was exceptionally kind and accommodating, making up for any shortcomings. The location was central, although not exactly where I anticipated. The dining experience was mostly good, with only a few hiccups. Overall, a comfortable stay with a modern feel and friendly staff.
