アボッツフォード プライベートルーム & ポッズ @ 15 チャールズ ホームステイ

Like it there.

Nice people stay there

The room was very ordinary. Lack of blankets so I had put all my clothes on and was still freezing all night. And on top of that people making noises until 3AM. Even with ear plugs I only slept a couple of hours. Towel had a stain and was torn . No tiolet paper. Never again

Mould in the shower. Splatters of who-knows-what on the wall by the toilet. No aircon, and smoke from other guests if you open then windows. Sketchy af looking types staying there.

Didn’t stst

What it says on the box, no frills budget hotel. But clean and comfortable

Haven't been in pod accommodation before but it seemed to work well. Had a room to myself that was very clean and comfortable, and shared bathroom was close. Kitchen facilities were well looked after. Manager was very considerate.

Property was as expected from the listing posted.

The room itself was as advertised and fine. But being by the front door it was so LOUD. Everytime someone used the door the beeping of the door lock and slamming of the door woke us up. Not to mention the loud occupants who spoke on the phone and in the hallways at 11:00pm, 2:30am , then again at 4:30am. Do not recommend

This is a very basic place, so don’t expect much and bring a padlock for your gear as this is an unsafe area. I had a problem with my pod breaking and I was injured and the staff were not interested in putting things right. If you book here don’t expect much for your money!

Liked friendly and welcoming staff, cleanliness, free coffee tea and bread. Comfortable bed and communal areas. Only think to be improved is that I wasnt in receipt of the code to get in when I arrived. I didnt have a sim card so couldnt phone. I went away and emailed Frank to get it and then went back. Ideally an automatic email and text giving these details, before check out time would have been good. Overall this is my favourite accommodation place in Melbourne.

My windows were missing 1 half of the curtain which meant you had a natural alarm clock regardless how tired you are, but hey, cheap

This is a budget stay. They send you an email after booking which had me giggling that really pushed it home. They basically say you don’t pay for extra services so don’t expect them. For me, I got exactly what I paid for. I was excited to try out the capsule pod for a night and it was maybe 15mins from where I’d been earlier. Very convenient. The pods were a bit creaky but overall clean and had all the necessary bits for charging electronics. It gave me a Star Wars/Star Trek vibe and it was fun staying somewhere that looks so much like the places in Japan that I haven’t been able to go. The shower was adequate, got the job done. Decent shared kitchen. From my single night everyone seemed to be aware of each other and were as quiet as they could be. These aren’t soundproof spaces but I didn’t find it a problem. I have chronic pain and health conditions and I was in an upper capsule. I found the little ladder steps to be the easiest I’ve ever used. Very solid, easy to navigate and no foot pain from tiny rungs.

One towel, stained and not even folded, no bed lamps, bed had no frame or bed head, just a matress and base plonked on the floor.no soap in bathroom, no amenities. For very little extra cost this room could have been so much better. Spa out odd order and dirty.

Good place to stay and Huw the manager there is pretty nice. He does very good and tasty cooks for me. Good experience to share and will choose too for next time.

It's a homestay in the true sense of the word. The caretaker goes the extra mile and is great IT support. rooms and bathrooms are excellent. The back garden area is lovely to spend time in. Laundry and Kitchen is just like home. If you need something and can't find it, all you have to do is ask.

If you're on a limited budget or everything else is booked out, then so be it. Holes in the walls, dust on all horizontal surfaces and the bed was, well, less said the better. On a positive note, however, the caretaker is a genuinely friendly gentleman who tries hard to make guests feel welcome.

Disgustingly filthy. Awaiting refund and did not feel safe

You get what you pay for. Cheap place to stay but don't expect a super comfy bed or much privacy and quiet. Fairly priced and convenient for a one night stay near Melbourne's attractions

Stay away! This place is nothing at all like the pictures! It was so dirty and we felt too uncomfortable to stay there. It was terrible, we left 5 minutes after check in. Trying to get a refund. 15 degrees hotter inside then outside with a tiny fan only. Walls and curtains were covered in black and brown marks. It was awful.
