    Location close to Melbourne; separate bedroom.

    TV remote didn't work properly.

    8KarenPosted on: 8-31-2017

    Close to Fitzroy gardens and Captain Cooks cottage. Walking distance to the cbd. Iga and restaurants across the road.

    7PetraPosted on: 7-16-2017

    The staff was very friendly and helpful. The appartment is spacious and comfortable.

    I didn't like the late arrival procedure. You have to give your credit card details via an outside intercom with random people standing nearby. Very uncomfortable. Also there was a HUGE aircon unit so loud that I was rather cold then coping with the noise

    It had everything

    That it wasn?t where the reception was

    8PeterPosted on: 1-27-2026

    The location is perfect for an affordable stay close to city

    At the price I paid & the location , there was nothing I didn’t like. It’s older style building & the quality & cleanliness is good.

    We handed the keys back it was unfit to stay there rip carpet tiles and blood stains dirty sink broken chairs Waiting on a refund

    Everything was bad

    Location location location. Went there with low expectations and ended up feeling it was good value for a family of four if all you need is a cheap place in a great spot. Easy check-in and free parking. Beds were comfortable and smart tv was good.

    One of the bed sheets had an old stain that hadn't come out in the wash. The AC didn't work. The bathroom was ordinary and could have been cleaner.

    Good location

    Old building not very well maintained

    1JosephPosted on: 12-28-2025

    Awful, gross room with a non functioning bed

    Bed was missing slats and the couch was full of gross stains

    3KristiePosted on: 12-7-2025

    It was nice that the reception allowed us to store our bags after check out before we could get to our fligths

    Lots of things. There was no plug for the kitchen sink - could not wash up. No hand/tea towel in the kitchen to dry hands. Could not get the tv to work. The power board next to the main bed did not reach the cord for the lamp beside the bed. No hot water late in the evening. We were out all day and stayed out for dinner then could not have a shower when we got home. One of the single beds had a big dent in the mattress - very uncomfortable. Very limited kitchen supplies.

    Friendly Staff

    Hard to understand the difference of rooms and choices of property.Even different rooms and buildings exist…Completely different from photos

    Lounge needed replacing. Cookware ill equipt and dirty utensils

    4NickyPosted on: 11-13-2025

    Location to MCG plus bed was comfortable

    Rooms need a deep clean. More than 1 Power point. Do something about cords running all over the floor due to lack of power points. Only 1 glass - for 2 people. Table was broken. You can hear everything from other guests. Floor was more comfortable than the couch. When room booked not advised it was far from office and you have to drag your luggage a considerable distance

    5DaniellePosted on: 10-3-2025

    We liked the location and short wallk to the MCG. 1 easy k. There was plenty of space and the bathroom was clean.

    The beds were hard and it was tricky trying to sleep with paper thing curtains and the possums running around the roof. It was basic but for 1 night it was value for money.

    7RobynPosted on: 9-7-2025

    Great value, free parking, large room, great water pressure, fully equipped kitchen.

    TV didn't work properly, couches are very uncomfortable, heater in bedroom didn't work.

    8sarahPosted on: 8-28-2025

    was a nice little walk from city and mcg.

    was a bit cold, no extra blankets.the gym equipment at the park plays music when in use and you can hear it from the room, so not good if wanting a sleep in.
