The property has good, quiet air conditioning, and it is located in a nice suburb, a short walk to a tram stop. Lift access was good, away from the hustle of the CBD.

Nice hotel with studios with kitchenette. Great Italian restaurant by the lobby, convenient and very nice pizza and pastas, in an area that does not have too many dinner options.
