Hotel was pleasant and the customer service was great, which made my stay. Below is outlined feedback, good/bad.||Pros||-Close to metro station, mall, markets, and eateries ||-Great customer service from front desk ||-Spacious room and nice amenities ||-EZ mart right downstairs (He was def not the friendliest)||||Cons||-I hated the bathroom, sink was too small and the water from shower would go everywhere - worst part of the stay - I would have never booked if I had known the shower door was that small compared to the shower area- totally useless and constantly cleaning up water||-Steep ledge entering bathroom, that cause me to trip multiple times- safety hazard||-No clear directions on how to operate appliances- as a non-Australian, stark differences from American appliances, a quick reference card would have been helpful||-No paper towels, purchased out of my pocket. If you offer a full kitchen/kitchenette- the basic provided items, should at least include a roll of paper towels||-No door peephole- so if someone knocked you had no idea who was there - as a solo traveler, was not a fan of this||-When I booked, I thought the balcony opened up, as I am a smoker, and was very disappointed to see this half open concept with windows, and having no designated comfy place to simply sit and smoke was very inconvenient and frankly annoying. ||-The rooms def need some TLC. The word "luxury" is used a little too loosely in this instance. The common areas, like downstairs, are misleading and extremely nice, but 4th floor and rooms are tired and worn - def not luxury. I took pics, carpet worn, discolored, and ripped. Same as in room, def areas of improvements, again, if you wish to label it "Luxury"||-Guy concierge could have been a little bit friendlier||-Elevators extremely slow||-Homeless person literally had an outside apartment right across the street- area is not as nice as I thought, and this was off putting. ||-No clear understanding of the bond (deposit hold) this can be a real issue if someone is caught off-guard. Expedia did not state I had a deposit on my reservation, but as an avid traveler, I assumed there was one and glad I did. Your own website has $500 (which is way too high), another site had $150) but when I checked in, it was $100 I believe- way too confusing. ||-Balcony door from inside the living area would not lock and the door from bedroom to the balcony was not locked at all. Being a solo female traveler, regardless of the balcony window capability, this is not ok. ||||Overall, the stay was ok, but using the word "luxury" was very misleading, as the only luxury thing was the lobby.
