Great location. There was a bug/cockroach in room. The shower pressure was too low. The TV is too high in relation to where the bed is. The lcd screen for air con remote was broken. Pretty dissapointing and I will not be staying here again.

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.
