We specifically chose the property as it advertised parking, yet when we got there we found that parking was not available on the property and to park on the street for free between 7pm and 7am. As it was Valentines Day...there was no parking and who wants to have to wake before 7am to shift their vehicle. Subsequently, we parked in the Carpark next door only to find that doesn't open the next day and we needed to pay a hefty penalty to have someone attend the carpark to let our car out....causing us to miss our next flight.

This place was perfect for me as a solo traveller, it was close to everything I needed to get to! The building isn't new so of course there are some stains on the floors however it was properly cleaned and the staff were very lovely! The standard room that I had was small which honestly I prefer and because I was at the back of the building it was quiet.

The room was a little below average. There was a lot of noise from other rooms and in the hallway. The shower did not have shower curtains they were normal window curtains. The staff while we were there were very helpful and friendly.

Don’t look to close!
The young man at the desk was very polite. This property is in prime position in Lygon Street. BUT…. The place needs a good clean, on the surface it looks clean but don’t look too close. The door to our room needed a good wipe down, entering the room your senses are offended by the smell of stale cigarette smoke. The shower head wouldn’t stay up and the top of it was filthy. The kitchen bench had a chunk missing out of it, definitely should not pass health inspection. The balcony was dirty and needed a good sweep. The hallway carpet needed a good vacuum and tiles a good mop. Such a shame that this Hotel has not or is not maintained, as it has great potential. And just needs a good deep clean.

Excellent position and accessibility. Microwave not working. Kitchen sink tap fell off. Floor tiles a bit sticky. Felt the overall room was a bit run down. Not up to expectations and certainly not an apartment.
