Overall, the hotel is well-maintained and very comfortable to stay in. It's a fair location, close to the city of St Kilda. Also, you're able to walk to South Melbourne if your're energenic.

We had a junior suite which was exactly as shown , very clean with everything you could want . Even had a pod coffee machine which was for us a great addition. Staff were very courteous ,helpful and obliging . Check in/ out was so easy . Great location , short walk to tram line . Will definently be staying here again.

I had booked a room with 2 single beds as my niece was also coming for the weekend stay. On entering the room this was NOT the case so I immediately returned to reception. He rang housekeeping and arranged the bed configuration change. He also said they ? did not get all the details from Hotels and perhaps I should have booked direct.My niece and I arrived back late from 2 separate events and there was NO change to the king bed. When 2 people (who are not a couple) sleep in the one bed they tend to spread out more to the edges so the king doona/ sheets on the king bed were not adequate cover when either one of us turned over . Also the room wording as advertised said "accessible balcony" ... so I thought it had a balcony you could ?access ,which I thought strange..... not an accessible room (suitable for the disabled) so I wonder if I could have just moved rooms to one with twin beds (not in an accessible room.) If I had realised what I was going to get I would have booked another hotel OR maybe a room with 2 double beds. I will, in future ,ring up the booked hotel about 5 days before arrival to check room details so I can CANCEL & BE REFUNDED if not suitable.

This is just another plain average hotel. At check in there was no hello or any greeting at all. Photo id and credit card was all he said. No other customers so I'm not sure what the rush was. Room was average. Mould in shower, rips in carpet and cracks in hand basin. Really nice balcony though. If you had a drinking partner that is a great little spot. Twenty uber eats bikes out front makes the place look even tackier.

The passageways were incredibly dark. Parking is awkward with so many tradesmen taking up parking space. Room was perfect for our short stay

Good location, modern rooms. Noise in the hallways in the early morning wasn’t ideal…banging on doors and yelling. Checkin was slow.

In no world is this a 5 star hotel. It was a bit run down and cleanliness could definitely be improved. I would have been ok with it as-is as a 3 star hotel, but with the expectation of 5 stars, it was disappointing.

Lack of staff. They use an AI for contacting reception. Room was pretty dirty in general. We stayed because of the proximity to Albert Park and the F1 but would not choose to stay here again

We stayed here during the F1 Aus GP so the prices were extreme during the event but this was the same everywhere. We chose this accommodation for it's close walking proximity to Albert Park & found there were plenty of food & dining options easily accessible. I will argue that the Junior Suite we booked isn't really a suite, more like a terribly layed-out studio apartment. There is no fan or air con in the bedroom space, the bathroom is uncomfortably small. The lighting situation was awful, we couldn't manage to switch off the kitchenette lights at all & the bathroom had an auto sensor so if you needed to use it during the night, the whole place lit up with bright light. The only way around this we found was taking the room key out of the activation sensor at the door which meant no electricity during the night (chargers etc). Frustrating but not the end of the world. Room was suitably clean and the kitchenette was well equipped with a large fridge/freezer, small cook top, small dishwasher and cutlery/crockery. So we bought plenty of groceries to make small meals ourselves. We did have to ask and wait until some fry pans were available as they dont have enough for each room. Overall, we were grateful to find this place during a very busy time for the city and it had all we needed. Solid 3/5 stars

Good location for F1. Nice corner balcony with good view of Albert Park and the bay. Unloading car was tricky as no check in parking available. Staff were very friendly but could not help with any of our requests other than room selection with reservations. No Nespresso, coffee machine or French press. Housekeeping was hit and miss. One day it was great, another day just replaced the towels and took out the trash leaving the bed in disarray and the carpet in need of vacuuming. Windows and railing glass need to be cleaned. Laundry room was nice option to have. Overall enjoyed our stay. Some attention to the details and a coffee machine would go a long way to make this a great stay.
