Ridge Apartment Hotel

Location mainly, as I traveled by train it was handy to Roma Street Station, cafes nearby, bottle shop across the road and walking distance to city. Plenty of room in apartment with natural daylight, comfortable bed and lounge and a big plus was the kitchenette.

The power plug in downstairs bedroom, coming out of the wall - dangerous. Lefthand blind in same room, came off the railing, unable to use. Couldn't find the aircon remote on first night. Had to ask reception, was in upstairs bedroom. No plug in upstairs bathroom sink

The location was perfect. 15 minute walk to the main bus station, 7 minutes to the central train station and 10 minutes to the ferry terminal. Convenience stores close by. There are some steep hills which are a mission with suitcases but at only a short distance from the train station, it wasn't much of a big deal. The room was a great base with everything needed including a washing machine in the bathroom with 2 sachets of washing powder. Bed comfy. Staff were lovely and very helpful.

Location was ideal for our needs there were ample shops and restaurants near by.

The room had a homely feel with tasteful decorating. It didn’t have that cold, tasteless, uniform look that hotel rooms often have. I loved its vibe and everything needed was there. The lounge chairs were reclining, the kitchen well appointed with a funky look and top end utilities including a Nespresso coffee maker. The ensuite was really nice and clean. There were windows around the entire unit so the natural lighting was lovely with great views of the city. It was close enough to the city to walk there.
