Friendly helpful Staff, excellent security features, roomy well-equipped rooms, fine City view including stretches of the Yarra; walking distance to all the Arts venues we were attending:- State Theatre, Museum, Recital Centre...and Mini Supermarket next door.

Noise from building work on nearby new tower blocks. Can't be helped and a small price to pay for being so close to all amenities.

The size of the room was perfect. I meet family there so we have a two bedroom unit and it was just the right size for us.

The only thing I didn't like was the amount of time we had to wait for the lifts all the time.

We were upgraded to a suite with two bathrooms. Kitchen was well outfitted.

Didn't like the shower in the second bathroom. I couldn't figure out how to keep water from flowing onto the bathroom floor. Also, there was a drunk individual wandering up and down the hall when we got back one night. A little scary. Internet and phone didn't work because it was plugged into the wrong socket.

Everything.

No kitchen and toilet carpet. Very cold when step on the ground! Slippery floor in the bathroom! The toilet bathtub there should have a curtain so that wont feel like a disaster after a shower!

These close to City and Casino, Southbank precinct and transport... Apartments, have all the answers on location. They generally meet the standards and requirements for comfortable stays. Two Bathrooms and WC's is a must for sharing people. Nice and clean, roomy, good quality working Kitchen utilities, and very secure. Would stay here again only if the price represented better than most for value, as explained by my red comments.

The road noise from outside is horrendous but totally acceptable providing you keep closed the small fresh air windows. This unfortunately is not desirable 100% of the time and we like fresh air when sleeping. Surmountable, but compromise would need to be considered. Having to tramps from check in to the building with all our gear, wasn't all that special either.

there was nothing I did not like, however it would have been nice to have a small table and couple chairs on balcony so that I could have enjoyed breakfast in the sun looking at the views.

Position, ease of access in and out of apartments, views of south eastern Melbourne and the bay, walking distance access to CBD, Southbank, Botanic Gardens, Art Gallery, etc. Cafes and restaurants aplenty!

Have stayed at MSSA on previous occassions and found Victoria Tower extremely noisy form very early in the morning. Hence requested city views and highest floor possible where we have been most comfortable in the past. Request not granted. Would not stay in Victoria Tower ever again. In future will ring up and make booking. If city tower not available will go elsewhere. WiFi Internet access variable. Venetian blinds becoming worse for wear!

That our bed configuration was wrong and one guest had to sleep on the floor on the lounge cushions because there was not a fold up bed available. The desk staff were helpful and friendly but the manager on dutybatbthe time was unhelpful, inflexible and not willing to help!

2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment on the 15th floor was spacious and comfortable for family group. Reasonably well-equipped kitchen made eating in easy. Beds were good, great hot shower with good water pressure. Apartment had good non-city views.

Living area carpet was heavily stained and smell of deodorizer was unpleasantly strong. Not particularly quiet, with background hum of traffic and whistling wind, though I imagine this comes with the location.

2nd Shower was inoperable because the fitting holding the shower head couldn't be tightened. Disappointing as we especially chose an apartment with 2 showers.

Southpoint (short stay apartment) was a convenient 10 minute walk to Southbank Precinct and Crown Casino for food and entertainment. Food from the Cafe at the ground level of the building was excellent for service & price. Also IGA/Liquor store, noodle bar, restaurant around the corner were also great value. Would definitely want to stay at this location again.

Staff were great, had a problem with several of the applicances, phoned the reception to advise and within the day an electrican came to look at the problem, fixed it and went the extra mile to assist us.

We had been booked at 185 City road and upon arrival it had been changed to 241 city Road, which was disappointing as we were further from town.
