Very good, clean hotel and helpful staff. Did not sleep well though due to constant noise from outside 'ruckus'. It is St Kilda though, so i expected that. Nothing to do with the hotel.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
I wouldn’t recommend this property to anyone. The lifts are so slow. The heater wouldn't turn on for ages and when it did it was so noisy. The water pressure in the shower was poor and the temperature was lucky to be on the higher side of warm. We ordered a room with a spa, but the jets on the spa didn’t even turn on. The wall paper around the property is peeling off the walls. The towel rack in the bathroom was falling out of the wall and to top it off when packing to leave we found someone else’s dirty underpants under the bed. We will never be back. The hotel is old and in massive need of a revamp.

Excellent location nearby eateries, pubs. Attended to see a show at the Espy and it was so easy. Room was a reasonable size and bed very clean and comfortable. Shower large but disappointing no shower cap provided as shower head mounted high consequently wetting hair. Temp of water also not very warm, even at hottest setting. Parking was easy but incurred a charge. Early check in was not possible. Foyer area welcoming and conveniently located. Lovely quiet stay overnight and felt safe. Loved the soap and products supplied. Well worth a stay, well priced and will consider a return.
