Ok but a few issues
The room, bed, bathroom, parking were all ok however the aircon vent was filthy and looked like covered in mould.
The old $100 deposit to be repaid in 5+ days is rediculous - should be refunded much more quickly.

Rydges was great
Breakfast meal at Moss on wood wasn’t nice.
Staff were very unhelpful and meal order took over 1 hour.
Walked out as we where over waiting.

First room was above a night club and noisy, the windows did not shut properly and the wind made loud whistling noises but the friendly and helpful staff moved us to another room on the other side of the building and it was fantastic.

The first night my son and I were woken up at least ten times. We gave up trying to sleep at 4am. People were just having fun but the coming and going all night was really frustrating. The second night we were kindly moved to a room away from the lifts. By 4am we were up again. The rooms had everything we needed and staff were lovely, but I certainly wouldn't recommend staying there on a weekend if sleep is something you need.
