The staff were not helpful, the lift was disgusting, the room could do with a paint had plaster repairs unfinished the bathroom was filthy. There was a sign at reception asking people to call the police if they see the person in the photo doesn’t make you feel safe especially when th instruction to get in state you need a code but there is actually no door so you ca walk straight in and into the lift without a key.

Liked: Amenities
Bed was comfortable and shower pressure was perfect. Building was without hot water on first night of stay but staff had it fixed by the morning. Superficial structural damage to the carpet and doorframe near bathroom left room feeling run down. TV reception was non-functional. No room service was provided, nor did staff inform if such an option was available. More communication in this regard would be appreciated. Due to the unfortunate timing of events during my stay, room prices were far above what one would consider a fair nightly rate, however, at a lower rate, its a fine budget option for a few nights.

Definitely the second worst mattress and base I’ve ever slept on. Should be sent to landfill immediately. And the room was grotty. Needs a serious deep clean. Apart from that, staff good, location excellent. They sent a helpful text message, explaining how to get in and where to find the key, way ahead of time.

Room was absolutely filthy never dusted or vacuumed - bed and towels were clean - room was completely ran down - shower curtain covered in mould - there was no toilet paper in dispenser however found one on sink - aircon only worked with curtain open and it was very noisy being on swanston street and to top everything off the TV didn’t work - fuzzy reception, it was basically like staying in a seedy hostel in the best location in town, lastly no reception desk after 5pm had to call 3 times to finally get them to send details of door codes etc, if it was renovated with a safer elevator it would be amazing with the location.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The room itself was pretty dirty. Lots of built up dust underneath furniture and appliances. The air con worked great, no issues there. Check-in was straight forward and easy. The location is great. 3 minute walk from Flinders and ease if access to Melbourne. It could use a bit of care, but you get what you pay for and it served its function as a short-term stay.
