Friendly staff, great location for us - easy walk to trams, great eateries and supermarket close by - clean room that had everything we needed, easy check in and out. Only small grizzle was the shower which was a little unpredictable in temperature at times (but not annoying enough to stop us from staying with you again)

Nice hotel, pool and rooms are very clean and the staff are friendly and helpful. Only bad point is you can hear everything that’s going on outside your room and hear lots of footsteps from the room above. It was difficult to get to sleep early with all the noise. But we enjoyed our stay.

Good location with buses and trams close by. The room was clean and equipped with 2 chairs (always a plus when you're a couple), kettle and fridge. Treated to a spectacular view of hot air balloons from our window on Tuesday morning. EV charging was convenient if not exactly cheap ($30-). Only one block from Lygon Street eateries and a Woolworths supermarket just up the road.
