The apartments have a fun modern design, but it's clear they have just "gone over" the top of the existing old building creating some awkward shaped spaces. It's in a really convenient area, close to lots of shops/dining and the train station.

From start to finish this was such an amazing stay. I was able to check in early, the room was amazing, the bed super comfy and the front desk woman even helped me with my crazy heavy bag. It was in a safe neighborhood right near shops, food and public transport. Would recommend and stay again!

We’re a family of 4 (2A and 2C) and recently stayed here to attend the AFL grand final. This property was very close to the train station and only 1 stop away from the MCG. The self-contained apartment was well equipped, beds were very comfy, and the double glazed windows made the unit very quiet. We were very happy with our stay.
