Property was within walking distance to shops and MCG. Linen was clean. Bedroom was dirty and shower was covered in mold. Room smelt like bleach and the smell remained overnight. Didn't use the bathroom facilities and I would not stay there again.

Awful. Super dirty. Avoid. Location is the only good thing. Glass on carpet, no batteries on TV remote, old food near microwave, room smelt of smoke. No ventilation in bathroom so there is black mold. If cleaners spent an extra 10 minutes wiping everything down it might of got 2 stars. The reception was kind enough to refund our second night so we could stay elsewhere.

I paid for luggage storage as my flight was late in the afternoon and checkout was at 10am. So I paid for their service to hold my luggage until I was ready (which was one hour) in that hour (I left at 10am and returned at 11am) my bag was stolen, within that bag was cash, jewelry, important health medication, ID, and many other sentimental and valuable things. I am BEYOND saddened by the negligence of this property! ZERO compensation was offered for the loss of my property in their paid for service of care!

Pros: Streaming services eg Netflix; convenient to shops/dining and tram stop right at doorstep. Has bar fridge/freezer and microwave. Sizable combined bathroom / toilet Cons: Room carpet for allocated has abit of odour and stained. TV cabinet used as storage space for kettle, cups, glasses and beverages. Shelf broken and used to cover hole in cabinet. No wardrobe just open space; two metal poles with bar across for clothes. Reception hours for Sunday is now 10 am - 3 pm. But in booking confirmation email, Reception hours in black & white is 8 am to 8 pm. Very misleading and Reception not manned and need to call a telephone number. In summary, supposed what you get for a 3 star motel plus price paid was reasonable for 3 person in 1 room (1 Queen bed plus 1 single bed)
