Great location, comfortable bed. Don’t expect luxury accommodation though. Very dated with peeling paint, power boards and extension cords everywhere. Prices are good. You get what you pay for.

Location and cost were very good. Quiet neighbourhood within walking distance to shops in Richmond, the MCG and public transport. Apartment was a good size and bed comfortable. Negatives were the very dated and uncomfortable couch, dirty window ledge in the bathroom (covered in loose dirt) limited toiletries. Overall I would stay again as the location is great.

Pretty average accommodation, but you pay for what you get. The bed was rock hard and had a thick plastic mattress protector. At least the bathroom had a minor renovation.

Was a great location. Easy check-in and friendly staff. But you can hear EVERYTHING from neighbours all around. There was a mother and daughter fighting for over 30 minutes. A baby screaming throughout the night. Parking was great the first night but upon return the second night, it was quite full so had to squish in the corner. Lots of rubbish out in the carpark area.
