Disliked: Amenities
After being given a sub standard room (which was changed) we found the stay fine. A couple of points; the ergonomic design of the bathroom around the basin was cramped caused by a mirror cabinet that doesn’t need to be there as it’s not used. It sticks out too far. Secondly the issuing of only one key is inconvenient for a couple. On the plus the location was great, close to all amenities. One final comment, the room was looking tired

Great location, great price, generous inclusions
This property was amazing value and they were certainly generous with their inclusions. We didn't have to go out and buy extra tea bags or milk!
One of the elevators was out of service which made for long waits in the lift lobby.
The main (double) bed was done for us as we are short, but I wouldn't recommend any tall people stay here as the bed would be too short. It was a little hard for my taste though. But the pillows: one big and hard (not for me) and the other was the softest, dreamiest pillow I've ever slept on.
The bathroom is well appointed with a lovely big shower and you don't have to wait ages for hot water. Again, lots of toiletries provided including toothbrush and toothpaste sets.
We did wonder why there were no blinds on the living area windows though.
We would definitely stay here again.
Our stay was very nice. Management was very helpful. Well furnished and equipped place. They replenished the place as well. View from every room was excellent. Only downside was lift., very slow but I guess they were reconstructing it. Overall very pleasant stay. We definitely consider to stay again if we r visiting Melbourne.
I was shocked at the quality of a so called 4 star apartment. Lifts weren't lined with board and tape and took forever to get up and down in. The carpet was very stained with rugs on top that were crumpled and easy to trip over. Did not look like the photos. Very disappointed.

Having to call reception to come to the desk and waiting 15min each time. Pretty annoying.
Lifts, complete joke. Task 10min to get down to ground floor each time, I’ve been to Vegas and stayed at large hotels and there was never an issue.
Place was clean, brilliant location. Great views from the hotel room. We stayed for 5 nights, I have 3 boy under 7, excited to use the pool. The pool was out of service for the 5 days. One of the reasons we stayed there.
Overall not sure if I’d stay again, however it was a good stay and I would recommend this place to friends.
Loved the location! Everything was close to the apartment and easy to get to. Transportation at your door step. Will be returning to same location on our future trip
Communication with representative was easy and he was quick on responding. Highly recommend
This is a great property for a stay in Melbourne! Extremely central location. Great food options nearby. Transport very close with southern cross station and a tram stop right out the front. Staff were very helpful. Allowed us to store our bags once we checked out. Apartment is clean and comfortable. All the amenities you need. Would highly recommend. Only downside (and this was not the fault of Aussie escape apartments) is that the lifts were a little frustrating. Only 1 out of 3 working at time for such a huge building was a little problematic. But Susan this would not at all stop me staying again in the future! Thanks
We liked staying here the only issue was the renovations and the elevator. It took 5-10 minutes each time to get from our floor down to the ground level. Very hard when you have a toddler on hand
We loved the view most of all. Can see the ocean in the distance and right next to the yarra river. Lots of restaurants close by with great food and a food court type place right next door. We didn’t use the kitchen but the bedrooms were comfortable, and the size was great for how little time we spent there. Good shower pressure. Fast elevators. Really no complaints. We loved Melbourne

No gym Jim, otherwise a great stay...
The apartment was amazing with excellent views, location and facilities. The beds were excellent and the pool, spa and sauna were outstanding. The building itself had some issues. One, sometimes, two out of three lifts were not working which made travel very slow. The gym was out of action and there was no communication about this prior to arrival which was disappointing with no alternative gym access provided. The pool was a bit bare of somewhere to put your things or spare towels. No jets allowed in the spa. No water allowed on the rocks in the sauna. Not sure why. But, they had the best view from a toilet I have ever seen. In summary, I would stay here again. Thank you.
Room was comfortable for our family of 3. Location was very good with tram outside and train/skybus station a very short walk away.
Only detractor was that the pool was closed for our 3 day stay and we were not warned that this was to be the case. We have an 11YO who loves swimming this was a deciding factor in us choosing this accommodation. So this alone was disapointing.
