6 friends got together here for a week from across Australia to celebrate engagements/birthdays and other significant life events missed over the years. We all had a blast visiting local attractions and events. From the Melbourne cup to the comedy lounge and a dozen things in-between we found the location provided convenient access to transport options. With all of us flying in it was handy that sky bus takes you straight to southern cross station from which it's a short walk (or a shorter tram ride) to the front door.
