It was a great location with easy access to the tram into the city. The price which included parking for a 3 bedroom apartment was great.

Staff went above and beyond! They were so genuine and helpful, I can’t praise them enough. The hotel is in a great location directly opposite a tram stop. Our family size, three bedroom apartment was perfect for 2 adults and 4 kids but would comfortably accommodate 6 adults. My only criticism is the need for better lighting in the stair wells but for the price of the accommodation the hotel is well maintained and provides a service well above its price point. Would happily stay here again.

We were not allowed into our room without photo proof of the person who had purchased and paid for the room. My husband had left his licence four hours away as we had travelled with our son. In the end our son had to ring the booking agency and add his name so that he could then show them his licence! The room was already paid for! An elderly couple in their early 80's had been waiting for 3 hours to get into their room as their son had booked the room for them. He eventually had to drive into Melbourne to prove that he had booked it. Disgraceful!!! We were charged $500 bonds for the one night, I'm fairly sure the elderly couple were not going to trash the room. Will NEVER stay here again!

We are sorry to hear that you had a bad experience at our property. It is standard procedure for hotels to require photo ID of the guest who has made the bookings, this is to ensure guest security. It is truly unfortunate that you had to wait and we hope that you enjoyed your time in St Kilda regardless of this.

We had a problem with identification at check-in. The staff did nothing to try to help us nor did they show understanding or empathy even though it was 44 degrees and my children and I were very uncomfortable. I was very disappointed with how they handled the problem. We had to walk to a police station to verify our identity after a long, hot journey.

Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that you were required to spend additional time in the heat. It is our policy to have all guests provide ID on check in, this is to prevent fraud and is a standard policy within the hotel industry. While we understand that you were with your family and were genuine customers, we must follow the same procedures with all guests. We hope that you were able to enjoy your stay with us and that you found our serviced apartment to be suited to your needs.

3br apartment - not what I was expecting. Apartments are separate to the main hotel in an old but renovated building. No lift, water pressure in shower poor and no laundry facility in apartment. Designated smoking area right outside the front door was not pleasant as the smells travelled inside through a big gap under the door that would benefit from a weather strip. Overall not terrible but not great.
