    More exciting than I would have liked because of the Fire Alarm incident.

    The bath tub - which had the shower in it - was quite high to step into. There were no towel rails in the bathroom. You need to apply to reception to give you a portable towel rack which I didn't know to do! Other complications not the fault of the Hotel were: The fire alarm went off at 1.30am - very disturbing and causing us to evacuate to the lobby . There was no fire, a drunk person had set off the alarm and was being interviewed by the police! The door keys - actually cards - both, did not work on our third evening when arriving back. Luckily the reception desk was open and were able to fix the cards.

    A lovely apartment. Modern and clean with everything we needed. Balcony and views were incredible. Elevator was swift. Car parking was efficient. Very handy to the Parliament Train Station. Good that the reception was open all hours. Good that an IGA food shop was next door and a parking space in front of it.

    Could have a bit more washing detergent and dishwater detergent as only had enough for 1 wash in each. Didn't have a tea towel, just a paper towel for the 4 days we were there but we did request no housekeeping so would assume that is why.

    We had a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom with city views. Rooms were lovely although main bathroom does have a shower over bath so not easy to get in and out of. Location was lovely just around the corner from Chinatown. Beds were comfy and view from our balcony was stunning.

    My initial room was on level 28 where the room heater made a high pitched squealing noise, and due to the windy weather the walls and big window creaked with each gust. The staff were very friendly and found me another room on level 18, where the heater worked! You will need an eye mask and ear plugs as the curtains are not blockout and the corridor noises seep through the door. Parking was advertised as being $39 on the ‘Facilities’ section of booking.com, however Oaks actually charge $59 dollars on top of my booking. I chose this hotel for its cheaper parking rate and was vey disappointed.

    The staff very exceptionally helpful and polite, the ned was comfortable and the location good for where I needed to be.

    Mattresses soft. A proper dishcloth would have been nice so we could clean the surfaces properly. It was very cold in bed the first night, we had to ask for blankets. Maybe a blanket in each room would be helpful.

    Great views. Large spacious room.

    We were in room1502 and from elevator to room was very smelly as rubbish chute was beside our door. Also at end of our 7 day stay one of two elevators weren't working which made for some long wait times to get to and from room.

    The kitchen was poorly equipped. The oven didn’t initially work and there was no baking tray. There was a broken glass in our cupboard when we first arrived. All of these things were sorted but I felt no one had checked properly before we arrived.

    Convenience to St Vincent’s hospital, The view. Comfortable bedrooms.

    The laundry facility in the apartment (washer / dryer) was faulty, too complex to use and frankly left our clothes smelling a bit dank.

    Very convenient location and large apartment - lots of room in just a 1 bedroom apartment.

    The washing machine dispenser had water in it. It didn’t drain properly. So we never used it. The cupboard in which the machine was in had a strong food odour. Not sure where that was coming from, perhaps next door. It needs attention. The carpet was very worn needing replaced and also the spare duvet inner needs replaced. I’m just pointing this out otherwise the owners won’t be aware. We did enjoy our stay.

    The location was great, walking distance to the tram line and walking distance to the city centre and Southbank. Convenience store is very close the same street and a supermarket nearby. We were on the 29th floor so we had great views. The living area had great day light with table, chairs and settee. The kitchen was well equipped. The bathroom had everything we needed.
