Rooms could do with a freshen up but for price and convenience it's brilliant, right in the middle of the City. I wouldn't hesitate to stay again, but if you're after something "fancy", maybe it isn't for you.

Do yourself a favour and don’t stay here. One of the dirtiest motels I’ve stayed at in over 20 years in Australia. The carpets look like they haven’t been cleaned for years, dust everywhere, hair in the bath. weird brown stuff on the plug sockets. The linen and towels were the only clean thing about the stay. It’s run down and depressing and when I left in the morning I found a drunk/stoned man laying in the corridor outside my door, so much for being ‘secure’. Only one lift works and it looks like it could stop at any moment. I don’t need 5 star luxury but I do value cleanliness. Ironically, it was cleaner when I left than when I arrived. Definitely do not recommend until they sort out the cleaning situation. It’s a shame as it’s located in a prime position to explore Melbourne but won’t be going back.

If you just need a place to stay for a few nights and to leave your suitcases somewhere in the city for an affordable price , this place is good but don’t expect luxury. In terms of space and comfort it’s doing just ok.

Great location. Good for the budget traveller. Probably not the best spot if you are a light sleeper due to the construction works across the street or if you are accustomed to staying in modern hotels.

Arrived at check in and had to call a number, Took 10 minutes for person to arrive at front desk and check us in. Hallway lights flickering and smelt like smoke. A/C noisy and didn’t work properly. Window didn’t shut and stayed open. Could hear everything during the night (traffic, trams, people) Spoke to management about this concern and he didn’t care. Construction outside started work at 7am next morning. Mould in bathroom. Only positive is location.

Even though we arrived in the allocated time for checkin there was no one at reception. We were provided instructions on accessing the key and how to get to our room. We were locked out of the building after returning from a night out with only the reception number to contact which went straight to voicemail. No response was provided until 9.30am the following morning via text providing the number to access the building. It was shear luck that we managed to access the property through another traveller otherwise we would have had to seek alternative accommodation. I know you get what you pay for but this was terrible and I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. I also had my young daughter with me and frankly we were quite scared with the lack of assistance from this property.
