It's an inexpensive option for an overnight stay. Nothing fancy as expected. The room and sheets were clean, the pillows soft and the mattress hard. I was the under the impression the additional cost for breakfast was a buffet which it wasn't, so a bit disappointed there, but not complaining.

I don't know of a cheaper hotel in Melbourne that is this well located, clean and modern for the price. Despite what the listing says, no $100 security deposit was required. Other guests can be a little loud, but that's a minor complaint.
