Great value for money; excellent staff, location

Very friendly and helpful staff, and great overall atmosphere - the weekly free dinner and game nights at the bar are a highlight! Quite comfortable and the bonus of a shared kitchen. Excellent location, easy walking distance to the tram and the amazing south Melbourne market
