The Ibis was a convenient stay if you need to be in the CBD or need transport connections to surrounding suburbs. Most staff were very pleasant and helpful- especially the lady at reception upon my checking out. They have a fantastic vending machine with snacks if you’re peckish- and looking for something to eat which is convenient. However the breakfast in the morning was quite simply inadequate and very poorly conducted. I arrived more than an hour before it was due to finish to find disarray and mess everywhere. No cutlery or napkins available- I had to ask a staff member for them. The food available was insufficient and quite poor in quality. Toast (no juice) a pancake machine which had to be refilled with batter because it had run out- and we were standing there wondering why it wasn’t working- yet there was nobody to assist. If you are going to specify a breakfast time- please make sure it runs entirely through that time- and that adequate food is available. If I had gotten there fifteen minutes before finishing- I’d understand- but I was there from 830am an hour to go- and still- it was messy, unhygienic and under resourced. If you go as far as providing muesli- some yogurt and fruit would have also been appreciated, but there was none. I was considering going into the city to pay $25 for a breakfast I could actually eat. The room was adequate for an overnight stay- but the bed light wasn’t working- and neither was the TV remote. Not the best stay here.

The lights over the bed were broken, toilet was so noisy as the water tank has some problem. We did not use the shower because of looking unclean. But its budget hotel and position is great - so close everything of CBD.

Great Location okay for a night or two. Terrible food smell in lobby when walking in. Clean but really small room guess it is budget accommodation. Reception Staff were nice and very helpful. I left my phone charger in room accidently after checking out and no one returned, or contacted me which is a bit disappointing .

Do not stay here.
I travel for work every week and I can say without a doubt this is the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. The room was $239 but I wouldn't go back if it was free. Room is tiny, lock on door didn't really work so felt unsafe, toilet and shower basically in the room and bed was so uncomfortable. The only positive was the women at the front desk was fantastic and super helpful. There are other far better budget friendly options in Melbourne.

Cheap but still immaculately clean room. Will definitely stay here again while in Melbourne. Close proximity to everything and very competitive pricing. The ONLY downside is that I arrived after the lobby door locks and the "24 hour" front desk did not let me in for over 15 minutes. Luckily another guest was coming back in and I was able to be sheltered from the elements until the reception returned.
