Good value for long stay
For the price it's a good value. For the long stay it's a good place. Location is far from city center. But public bus was convenient.
Nice pool, nice training room, but you need to take your garbage out yourself, same with towels. You have to go to the front desk and ask new towels. Train station is 10 minute walk. Breakfast: You have to go to the other hotel just beside this one.

This was a TERRIBLE place! My room wasnt cleaned in the 12 days I stayed, no clean sheets or towels. I had to go downstairs and ask for toulet rolls and was given one at time like they were gold. The power went out and they put an announcement over the PA in all rooms at 1.30 am on one day and then 4.30am another day. One morning there was no power and no water and again on another day the water AND power was out all day. There is a kettle and microwave in the room but no cups, plates or utensils. The staff are rude and unhelpful.
Worst of all, they dont give your bond back. I have been waiting 3 and a half weeks. I have tried emailing and calling… crickets. I am now going to consumer protection.
AVOID this place it is a shocker.

PROS: The room was pretty clean, spacious, bed was comfy. The gym and pool facilities were def highlights, staff were friendly, lots of great common areas for students and groups to study/mingle. CONS: The place is kinda falling apart. Fridge and aircon worked, but rattled so noisily from their old age and overuse that it was hard to sleep some nights. Two of the floor-to-ceiling windows were letting water in from worn/missing seals. I told the front desk staff after the 1st stormy night, I was there for a week, nothing was done. It stormed 2-3 more times during my stay, in the end I just had to put a towel down to soak up the leak so it wouldn't damage the carpet. The balcony door lock didn't work. The shower had a spider in the drain and there was no soap or spare toilet paper. The pictures of the room online when I booked were very obviously taken when the place was brand new.

I wasn’t told about a planned power outage happening the day I booked. After a flight, transportation and hot weather, I wanted to cool down and charge my phone but because of the outage, I had to stay in a lobby of the hotel next to the hotel I paid for, to stay cool and charge my phone for over 3 hours. I wish I was told beforehand about the power outage, the staff were nice during this period but there was no compensation for it.
It wasn’t a very clean hotel room. The bathroom is tiny but it’s okay. The window isn’t sealed properly so there was a breeze. You can’t change the ac temp. You could see the marks and feel sticky places everywhere, especially the tv remote. Dead moths and alive ones in the room I was in. I was also next to a kitchen that everyone can use, it did get loud at times when people were cooking and smelly. People kept opening the stair doors and letting them slam shut behind them which is very loud at night. Otherwise it was a good experience, staff were nice but just annoying I wasn’t informed at all of a planned power outage, really ruined the whole experience for myself but I would stay there again.
Pretty awful two weeks here - air con unit was really loud, power outages, dirty water, broken toilet and fire alarms. I wanna say it’s the case of a series of unfortunate events but clearly there is trade off to this hotel being so cheap. Some of the accomodation is shared with university accomodation which means you get the habits of some students. Hallway bins weren’t emptied leaving quite a big mess in the hallway as the cleaners only come to your room on Thursday, students seem to set off fire alarms quite frequently, one day the whole hallway was smoked up from someone burning toast.
Would not recommend as a long term stay. The room was okay for the price point but the amount of maintenance issues made this hotel a nightmare.
The hotel is very good. Rooms are comfortable and very cozy. Perfect for one person. The front desk staff is friendly and kind. The airport is not too far. The tram and metro line are only few blocks to go to the city. The only negative this is that they never cleaned the room in four days. They didn't change the towels as well. I recommend it but just be aware about cleanliness. The facilitates are really nice. I'll stay again in the future.
This property is mainly designed for working people.The toilets and bathroom were extremly small.Would not recommend if you want to have a long term or leisure stay.

The check in was to long. There was many waiting to be checked in, but only one staff member on. The response from the receptionist was they were understaffed. Where was senior staff? FOM? MANAGER? They could have helped.
We had a great king-sized room with balcony that had a great view over north and west Melbourne and south to the city. Everything was clean and new and the shared kitchen was generally well equipped, maintained and clean. Very well equipped gym and nice, clean swimming pool. Easy walk to transport, shops, cafes and restaurants. Definitely recommend this property to those who want a well-priced option and are happy to stay in a lively northern suburb with easy access to the city and other attractions.

Modern amenities.
Bedding covered in lint and hair, which wasn’t ideal. Check-in was also very slow and communicated poorly, there often doesn’t seem to be enough staff on and they are trying to do a lot at once.
Excellent price for a safe space to stay. Rooms are compact but with everything you need and the bed was comfy. There are lovely shared working spaces and great cafe. I will definitely stay again
