"I was fortunate enough to be upgraded into a corner apartment, so I had two bedrooms, a lounge and kitchen. Very generous, but I was travelling alone and didn't need the space. The room was a little tired, although nice and clean. The bed was comfortable. There was a blind missing in the lounge causing a lack of privacy between the bedroom and bathroom. I was on the 10th floor, but there are other tall buildings nearby. The restaurant was closed, but there were nice cafes and a pub nearby. The free tram was a one minute walk away, and that gets you around the CBD at no cost."
