Do you love puzzles, riddles, and escape rooms? Then this hotel is for you! Forget the ordinary hotel experience of following provided instructions to have the simple (perhaps expected?) luxuries of things like air con and lights! Now for added fun, there are no staff available from 4pm to 8am - great for those of us who are working and like to play on “hard” mode! I arrived at 5:30 after work and followed the instructions sent via email to gain access to the apartment (this was the easy bit…) Now I got a room that faced the western sun and was directly opposite the loud noise of peak hour traffic and construction noise from Roma St. So my room was hot and opening the doors and windows was not an option. I looked at my provided instructions “to activate electricity in apartment put key in slot beside door”. But - no slot! Ok, let’s look around. There’s a switch that says “air conditioner” with an on off switch and speed. No, this does nothing. There’s a temperature control on a different wall, this does nothing either. I manage to get some of the lights on but think the air con must be broken. Haha. How foolish I was! I also couldn’t find the overhead light switch in the bedroom - I used the bedside lamp. Turns out (the next morning after a warm and fitful night of sleep) that the air con switch is a random unsigned light switch on yet another wall. Next to another unsigned switch that controlled lights! Also the bedroom light was in the back corner 30cm from the floor. Fun!
