Great stay - turned up 1.30am, no problem, late checkout offered and accepted. Room itself was snug (as described), had everything I needed, very clean, would definitely stay again. Terrific brekkie and coffee at Two Birds One Stone round the corner (5mins walk) down Claremont St. (Can I suggest to the late night staff that they don’t keep repeating your first name, it’s a bit over-familiar being called David ten times in five mins at 1.30am…but that said they were very courteous, they gave me a late checkout, and I was very grateful to be able to check in that late, after Lions rugby celebrations!) Only gripe is this Wotif review form which is broken!!)

It was accurately advertised as a very snug room, suitable just as a place to sleep for the night. Very clean and comfortable room. The music themed decorations were interesting. We were on the 2nd floor. Soundproofing was ok, there was very little noise from within the facility but there was a lot of noise from the street, especially the odd hoon car speeding up the street. That’s what you get along a bustling street of Melbourne on a Friday night. Latin inspired restaurant and bar looked amazing but we didn’t get the chance to use these facilities. Looked like it was a popular place to be. Lots and lots of shops and restaurants to choose from nearby. Check-in was quick and easy (loved the album shaped clip board we were given when completing the check-in form). Also, a nice touch were the lolly jars near the lifts for guests (yummy!). The one downside was the affiliated car park as it was a few minutes walk away. It’s really busy and hard to get parking outside the hotel when checking in or out with your luggage so you have to walk a distance with your luggage. Great place for young travellers, young couples or anyone wanting a place to rest after exploring this trendy shopping and restaurant strip.

The mini bar orange juice was very good indeed … as were the in room amenities of slippers, tea, and water fountain! The Coffee ( go to reception to ask for fresh ground coffee ) is novel but inconvenient !! As much as I wanted to try it … I failed in my quest. Lastly : the carpet was dirty and a tad annoying … and the toilet roll holder cover … is very dangerous!

Not as good as it used to be

We always try and stay here but it’s gone down hill. There are no longer free snacks/drinks in the rooms, the walls next to the bed had red wine or something splashed across them and never take a room on lvl one as the noise from the restaurant is really annoying. The beds are comfy though and staff helpful.

South Yarra gem

A small but well equipped room. Suited me very well as a solo traveller but might feel a bit compact for a couple staying more than a night or 2. Super comfortable bed, Iron and board in room, free laundry facilities, friendly young staff. Very convenient to public transport but my room facing Toorak Road had a bit of street noise through the night.
