I stayed at this hotel primarily for its budget-friendly price in the Melbourne CBD. Unfortunately, my experience was marred by numerous issues, including a lack of on-site staff after hours and some cleanliness concerns in my room. If you're looking for a basic stay without expecting too much, it might work for you, but I'd recommend checking some other options as well.

Rooms

5.0

The room had a small fridge and a bench, which was helpful, but it definitely needs some updating. I noticed that half the lights weren't working, and it didn't quite create an impression of cleanliness, even though it wasn't particularly dirty.

Service

When I arrived, there was no staff around to assist, and the way to check in felt quite complicated with the coded lock box. It seemed like they weren't prepared for the number of guests, and it took a while to sort everything out.

Location

The location is conveniently cheap, and it was easy to walk to beautiful Fitzroy Park. You can also reach many cafes, restaurants, and the sports precinct quickly. Overall, it's in a nice, quiet neighborhood.

Dining

Breakfast was merely okay, with only a few fresh options available. It felt a bit limited if you were looking for something substantial, and it may not suit those with early commitments given the timing.

I had a pretty disappointing experience at this hotel. While the reception service was friendly and helpful, the state of the building was unacceptable. The rooms were old and poorly maintained, with significant cleanliness issues. I didn’t feel safe due to the lack of proper security measures and noise disturbances. It's hard to recommend this place unless improvements are made.
