I booked online, booking was accepted, then I telephoned to find there were no rooms at this busy time, lucky I phoned! I was in Melbourne on business.I hope I have been refunded. The manager also told me the guy who normally facilitates late arrivals had a cold so a late arrival wasnt possible. Maybe an arrogant attitude at Grand Prix time!

Most importantly the room was clean and the bed was comfortable. It was close to transport giving easy access to the city. This wouldn’t suit someone wanting lots of room but it was good for us.

Room was advertised with courtyard and Netflix. On arrival, no Netflix and the courtyard was an open door leading to the outside. Not big enough for two. Our sleep was constantly disturbed by a passing train.

An unusual little place which people will either love or hate. I was initially out off by the size of the room (very small). But it has everything you need. No fridge etc, but the guest has the availability of a oproiper downstairs kitchen to cook meals or microwave , The hotel provides a free breakfast wghuicg is terrific in the kitchen area, bed is comfortable, guest has to look after themselves as far as room service goes, but supply lots of towels and anything else on. Needs. I extended my stay

Needed affordable accommodation for the night.

It's a nice place to stay very affordable and with a great breakfast not many places will give you a free breakfast, we defenantly will stay there again if we need to come to Melbourne. It's close to the beach, plenty of places to eat and all so close to the main city. The railway station is just across the road.They don't have parking facilities it's all on street parking. Thanks guys.
