It was ok. Nice and clean and beautiful view. Shame the air-con Kept turning off every few minutes and our amenities weren’t replenished on our last day. Dining in wasn’t that great either. Pretty pricey for average food, But the breakfast Buffet was well worth it and also delicious. Overall I’d score Rydges a 6/10

Everything was fine and excellent. The only reason was the parking and our room location doesn't have a really good view. We just have open and see the back of another building.
