“Great place to stay”

Great location. Easy to grab an u er and get to GIO stadium

“Good accommodation - but check the price”

Firstly, the accommodation is good. Room had everything we needed - fridge, cooking facilities (but only 2 of everything), washing machine/dryer. Good internet. Good shower and comfortable bed. Quiet - almost no noise from corridor or other rooms. Good air-conditioning (it was 29 Celsius outside during our stay). The issue I had was with the booking and charges, which had all the hallmarks of a scam but I don't think it was intentional. Just incompetence. Booked directly for 7 nights whilst attending a conference nearby. A week before we were due to leave I received an email offering a range of potential room upgrades. I applied for one, same day. Next day got an email to say that my application had been unsuccessful. No problem. On check-in I was charged for the upgrade room, but were given our original room request (hotel full, no upgrade possible). My credit card had been charged by the time I realised this, and was then told that they couldn't do a refund at the front desk, it had to go to "management" and expect 3 - 5 business days. I did get the refund but only after pestering the front desk. Also, buried well down in the fine print is the surcharge when paying by credit card (like, who pays cash for 7 days in a hotel?). Again, that is fine, but the amount I was charged was NOT the same as the amount displayed on my original booking contract (1.9% surcharge difference). I never actually received an itemised receipt from Abode for what I actually paid. In this regard, I think it is better to book through Expedia or Booking.com etc because their statements are much clearer in this regard. Also a note re restaurants. The No 10 bar on ground floor is really good, high recommended - but it doesn't seem to be always open for dinner. There isn't a lot else nearby. We couldn't get in to Gianni's (need to book in advance). The Canberra Labour Club is okay. Mostly cheap takeaways down by the lake. If No 10 had been open in the evening more often, we would have used it more. Pool area is exactly as per photo on this page, and is really good. We found it quiet up there.

“Lack of fire safety awareness by management”

Fire alarm went on off at 2am, then again at 3 am. Whilst I understand that this can happen the photo below shows that management have little or no regard for fire safety and the safety of their guests. Do your safety checks and controls manager!
