It is a lovely hotel, in a location convenient to restaurants, cafes and trams/buses. We stayed in the studio balcony room, it was neat, tidy with modern decor. The bathroom could do with a bit of repair work, there was nothing major, but enough to make it look a bit tired.

View of St Kilda was great and quite close to the parklands. Dining options and transport was quite accessible also. Fairly noisy on the balcony and you look straight into other apartments.

We had a lovely view from a high floor. The room was excellent but the bathtub could do with some re-enamelling and a more comfortable sofa would make it perfect. The room facilities were very good with a large fridge and good freezer plus an electric hob and dishwasher. There was also a nearby utility room with a washing machine and dryer. Although not part of the hotel there was an Italian restaurant next door. We enjoyed our stay and would use this hotel again.

Located in a great location just outside the CBD and very convenient. Very close to public transport. The room is clean, spacious and modern. The bathroom is clean and spacious. The highlight is the bed, incredibly comfortable and the pillows are so fluffy, had an amazing nights sleep. Both check in and check out was easy, staff were lovely and very professional. Would highly recommend
