Tucked away on a side street around the corner from Prahran station, this hotel is worth staying at. The rooms are comfortable and have all the necessities provided. Only 3 stops to Melbourne city by train, plenty of food and drink places to check out, and has a bar and restaurant downstairs. Staff are really nice and check in was easy and personable, shared kitchen and bathrooms were kept clean and no dramas.

After not being able to contact them for a late check-in, they were very apologetic and explained the reasons why. It was more than enough for what I wanted, and the Chapel Street precinct was easily reachable by foot. The train station was even closer. The staff were very helpful and friendly. It is its own night spot tucked away from the business of Chapel Street with a vibrant life of its own.

Very nice staff - friendly, hard working, good service. A very nice lemon drink on tap. Chips good texture crunch and tastw however not a fan of the lemon salt.

Unfortinately no ac so fan had to be going for whole night as window was just for decoration. Toilet and sinks very clean, as well as the kitchen laundry area. Very clean. Shower glass could use a bit of jif but not unbearable. Water pressure was mid. Exit could use a nice carpet clean vacuum and stair reinforcing and some more lighting. Would stay again and location is good and public transport is accessible.

Sam provides a really good offering for the ex back packers who don't want the price or fussiness of a hotel. A great pub with a varied customer base, always busy and has very pleasant helpful staff. Showers and kitchen serviced regularly by cleaning staff. Beds comfortable, nice towels and tea/coffee, kettle in the room. Washing and drying facilities a real plus.
