The hotel's central location is fantastic, just a short walk to Vic Market. The rooms, although clean, felt a bit dated with some maintenance issues. The service was accommodating, especially with our parking needs. The location was excellent for exploring the city, being close to public transport. Unfortunately, no dining options were available during our stay at Adara.

During our business trip, the hotel provided us with a clean and tidy room, but unfortunately, we encountered cockroaches crawling out of the kitchen sink left by the previous guest. The service was mostly good, with some staff members going out of their way to assist on our last day, but one guest had a bit of a high tone voice regarding the rules and regulations of the apartment. The location was ideal for us, as it was walking distance to Vic Market, Lygon Street, and Melbourne Central train station, although it could be a little better maintained. The dining options were not supplied during our 5-day stay at Adara, but we did enjoy some savory pies.
