Review by hotel critic
While the location is pretty darn good-close to the CBD and tram stops-the accommodation left much to be desired. The room was clean but small and basic, more like a cramped studio than a luxury apartment. Don't expect to settle in for a cozy night; the noise from trams and traffic was relentless. On the upside, you get some kitchen amenities, and the beds are reasonably comfortable. There's no air conditioning, which means you'll be wrestling with traffic noise if you opt to open the windows. If you're on a budget and just need a place for a night or two, it's passable, but for a longer stay or family trips, look elsewhere. I'd suggest weighing your options here-the luxury doesn't quite match the price tag.
