This is now my favourite Melbourne accommodation. The beds are just right, the layout is hip and suits remote work. It's close to restaurants and it ticks every box.

We’re a family of 4 (2A and 2C) and recently stayed here to attend the AFL grand final. This property was very close to the train station and only 1 stop away from the MCG. The self-contained apartment was well equipped, beds were very comfy, and the double glazed windows made the unit very quiet. We were very happy with our stay.

Loved the retro apartment style, comfy bed, cleanliness, all appliances in working order. Did not like the loose toilet seat, the position of toilet roll! ;) Thanks for great reception and stay!
