Missing what made Ovolo great.

We have stayed at Ovolo both in Sydney and Melbourne before. But we were sadden that the complimentary minibar is no longer as well as the happy hour is not available to expedia bookings. The parking rate is far too high. These luxuries were the reason we stayed at Ovolo. Sorry, but we probably wont be back.

The Ovolo was a unique hotel that had a lot of great features. There were issues with the washroom. The lighting was insanely poor for putting on makeup. The shower leaked out all over the floor and the shower mat was quite inadequate. These issues, unfortunately, made a great room less than great.

Nice hotel on the water. Pretty loud music every night from the downstairs restaurants.. pool was clean and spacious. Room we had was clean and stocked. Central location, but no transportation. It’s walkable to Westfield mall and art museum. Few restaurants around and at the property itself.
