Warm and comfortable though the windows could do with thicker curtains for the winter. I would've recommended the radiant panel heaters over their very powerful and easy to use dual system air con, while it's clearly a beast, it's an inefficient form of heating that fades the minute it's off to the plus it dries you out something shocking! They have spa baths as standard! Fantastic! Probably isn't the fanciest place out there, but for nice location,

Firstly, the location is excellent if you need access to St Kilda and parking is a good price. However, that’s about as good as this review can get. This review is for the serviced 2 bedroom apartment: 1. Check in time is 2pm but our room was not ready until 3:45. We had to wait in the lobby for almost an hour. 2. The bathroom looks nothing like what is advertised. It is a patch up job, and had a broken toilet seat. You can not change the height or direction of the shower head. 3. Carpet stains 4. No elevator access but luckily we are capable enough of taking our own luggage. We were not offered help. 5. A one hour late check out was provided and any extension is $50 per hour after that. 6. Batteries in one remote were flat. We had to remove one set so that we could use the TV in the bedroom. 7. Blinds in the master could not be opened. 8. Buffet breakfast food is average. Expensive for what was on offer. The staff in the dining room were very kind though. 9. Parking is SUPER tight. Advice, do not to take anything bigger that a small SUV. Our Ford Captiva was a challenge to navigate around the poles and into the tight spaces. Overall, we spent $400 on room, $20, parking and $120 for breakfast (we understand food costs have gone up and made this choice), but it was not worth it. What a shame.

Stayed in the apartments near the CNR of St Kilda junction. An eclectic mix of '30's old ( building, floors, doors, blinds etc. and new ( carpets, bed, stove, fridge etc. ). Tv remote was missing a battery, smoke detector was missing it's battery, venetian blind in lounge was broken & dirty. Wouldn't stay there a second time but for ease of getting into melb.cbd and the staff being so helpful and understanding, we're more than happy to recommend as a one night stop over

Had a lovely family stay in 3 bed apartment. Staff were friendly and unit was very clean. Building is old but it's really well placed for St Kilda, the park and the city. Would definitely stay again.

Our two bedroom apartment was very spacious, did smell of fresh paint but was liveable.our apartment was right on the road side and was very noisy, didn’t get much sleep but the mattress was good. No plug for the spa, so couldn’t use it.

A Good Family Apartment.
Great to have an apartment and the spa was a happy surprise. It wasn't a serviced apartment but due to covid we didn't mind and just asked for what we needed. It is an older apartment but has that Melbourne feel. Close to parks and shops.

Always a wonderful stay here. We have a grown up family who’ve moved out of home. We come together every year and go away for the weekend together. This is the perfect place to stay. Plenty of space for everyone and the location is amazing. THANKS AGAIN!

Sadly not a great experience
2 friends and I were staying in Melbourne for dinner and an early 5 am departure. The motel location was perfect. Our room was detached from the main motel and reception. While we waited for the 3rd person I was going to have a coffee or tea. The kitchen had a bad smell and all milk in the fridge was off and out of date. We decided to have dinner in the motel's onsite restaurant. Unfortunately this was closed. Fortunately the beds were very comfortable and the shower was strong and hot with soft large towels.as the common entrance door banged shut every time some one entered the building.
