Unfortunately, we only stayed at Imagine Lighthouse for one night. When we entered our apartment the carpets were stained, the doors were marked and the room was nothing like the pictures. We went back to reception and explained that we were dissatisfied. We then were shown another apartment, though this was small and dark. We were given a third option on a higher floor. The room was still run down, though by this stage we just wanted to rest. We agreed to stay one night and the reception explained that we needed to inform Expedia to get a refund. That night as I was drying my hair the hairdryer fuse blew in my hands! We also experienced the noise of the building structure screeching in the wind. I heard other customers complain about the room feeling like it was rocking also. Not a great experience and will not recommend this hotel to others.

I was told that I will get my pre authorization deposit back within 2 days of checking out of the hotel but when I wrote to enquire about the deposit after a week of not receiving it, was then told that I would receive it in 21 working days!!! It took them 30 seconds to charge my " international" credit card!!

The property was very close to many public transport options. It was a 2 min walk to the Queen Victoria Markets and lots of other mini supermarkets and food options. I had been put on the top floor and my view was excellent. I did not cook so cannot comment on the cooking appliances. I used the fridge and microwave only. The fridge was full sized and would have been good for a longer stay. Comfortable and clean.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The room wasn’t very clean, strangers toenails all over the bathroom floor. Every item of furniture was damaged, huge stains on the carpet. The housekeeping was poor, after they had been through the room smelly strongly like body odour. The toilet paper they left us was mouldy. The hotel is extremely loud at night, the windows are paper thin so can hear everything. Woken up multiple nights to sirens. The room was also advertised to have a dryer, but it didn’t. Wouldn’t return.

Great location and very spacious apartments. Staff were very friendly and helpful. My only criticism would be there were no trolleys for bags or box movement to apartments and the lifts were extremely slow. 4 x lifts to service 69 x floors meant a lot of waiting.
