Air-conditioning not working. Staff did not offer compensation :( E.g. free breakfast.
Peta from Qld, Australia 24 June 2013
Dear Peta, thank you for your feedback. When the problem was reported a technician went to the room and changed the setting on the remote for the air conditioning unit from cooling to heating.

Everything about my stay was fantastic, except that in room 401 I found it difficult to sleep due to the unfamiliar noise of the trams just outside the window.

Tram tracks are due for repair. Yarra Trams advise work is scheduled for July / August.

This was my 2nd time and again all went well. Two things, every night while I was there at 4am there was a lot of noise from someone walking either down the exit stairs or above me - it was quite loud and disruptive. But not much you can do! On the last day my bathroom sink was not cleaned but these are small things - overall the stay was excellent as always and housekeeping do an exceptional job. It was just a small oversight.

There was a small error when my room, which I had already settled into, seemed to have been allocated to another person who actually managed to enter my room using a key issued to them. HOWEVER, I do not consider this a major issue and I was extremely impressed with the prompt and professional action by the staff to rectify the situation.
Patrick from Canberra, Australia 20 June 2013
Prompt and professional we always try to be. But we certainly made a mix up there. Should not happen and the team members that were involved are chasten for their inattention.

All the staff were very friendly and helpful.We needed to leave the car parked until 4pm and store our luggage until this time. The staff accommodated us with no hesitation which we very much appreciated.
We'll definately be back - we've pretty much decided to book a room for New Years Eve to enjoy the fireworks and excellent location!

This is the 3rd time this year that I've stayed at the Alto & every time I realise anew why I don't want to stay anywhere else. The staff are great, the location perfect & free coffee & hot chocolate is much appreciated after a night at the footy. See you again next year.

From our first day to our last we loved our stay at the Alto. We walked everywhere or took the tram, the Alto is so well positioned in the heart of Melbourne. We were so impressed that we will definitely be back when we visit Melbourne again early next year! Thanks to all the friendly staff, you were all so welcoming and helpful.

The 2 storey stylish apartment suited our needs perfectly. We appreciated being able to occupy the room on arrival at 11.30am after advising you earlier. It made life so much easier. The complimentary champagne to celebrate the forthcoming wedding was a wonderful gesture. The wedding photographer used the room,lounge and hallway to take many pre-wedding photos as he found it to be excellent for location. Car parking was close by and the location for transport excellent. Staff were friendly, helpful and considerate. Being able to buy a MyKi pass there made that issue so much easier for "out of towners". It helped to make us enjoy our daughter's wedding so much more.

From the moment we walked in the door, until our departure, the staff was very accommodating and helpful. Being so close to Southern Cross made the location very convenient. Everything from the lobby, the restaurant, the hallways, and our room was always clean. The atmosphere was very quiet and relaxing. Being first time international travelers we did not know really what to expect- The staff at Alto made us feel safe and comfortable our entire visit. We were fortunate enough to stay in a two bedroom apartment so we had plenty of room to stretch out. There was a good variety of fresh food on the breakfast buffet and everything we ordered was delicious!! I would be completely confident in recommending this hotel to anyone!!
