checking in and out of the hotel was so quick and efficient thanks to the team. i’d recommend this location if you prefer a bit more quiet (minus the fire station on the west side haha) but it’s across from a woolies and a nice walk into the busy city. would stay here again 10/10

My 3 day stay was wonderful. The hotel is just as it is advertised. Front desk is expedient and professional. The property is safe with the residents in mind. It's easy to assess and close to everything you need from public transportation to shopping. I've never stayed in a place that was so clean and organized. My room and hotel were both emaculant. The view from my sky 1 bedroom was marvelous. I never wanted to leave. I highly highly recommend staying here. I will return next year. Best stay ever.

This was an outstanding stay. I am a regular visitor to Melbourne and this is the first time in ages where the apartment actually matched the photos on the site. From the moment I arrived the service was great. The room was well appointed, quiet and comfortable. The place is secure and a supermarket literally over the road! Once you work out the two closest tram stations then you will be connected to everywhere you need to go, and being just off the motorway makes ubers etc really easy. I loved it and will return.
