Dirty rooms, bad service, poorly managed… Was given a disgustingly dirty room on Saturday. Dirty sheets, poo stained carpets, unhygienic surfaces & equipment. Previous guest belongings, hair, rubbish, food items remained. Spoke to reception was informed no other rooms available. Left during night, could not rest as it was so disgusting. Went past on Monday to see manager, she said she needs a day to investigate & will call me in regards to compensation as they did have many other rooms available on the night, just the receptionist wasn’t trained for such situations… waited 2 days, so called hotel 4pm Tuesday, she had left for the day. So manager doesn’t work weekends, staff can’t call her outside of office hours, she just walked in at 9:30am Monday, she’s gone by 4pm during the week. She can’t take action until head office approves… can’t be normal responsibilities & working hours for a manager in a large hotel, won’t be long and st Kilda will have another shelter in such a prime location

Stayed one night in a serviced apartment with my kids. Spacious clean rooms with a lounge room and kitchen. It was comfortable and i would happily have stayed longer Rooms could be improved with bedside lamps, wider curtains. Our apartment was on ground level and there was a fair bit of traffic noise from the road as well as loud conversations outside our windows (all part of the ambience of the location). Ate buffet breakfast. Due to low numbers during school holidays the hot breakfast was cooked on demand however was limited to eggs and bacon not full English. Beware the onsite parking (additional $20 per day). The carpark under the building is a maze of large pilars displaying the damage to decades of paint jobs. The outdoor carparking shows similar problems along surfaces like timber fences. It is tight design with every available bit of space turned into parking despite the needs of car turning circles. We were parked in overnight, by a vehicle not in a marked car park. When I asked if the car owner could be contacted the reseption staff said no and didnt try to contact them (hot tip on parking for free i guess). Instead they guided me out. It took about 15 mins of driving like Austin Powers to get out of the capark and into the driveway. During my conversation with reception staff they made comments that me feel like i was an incompetent country driver not suited to metro conditions. Really took the shine off the whole experience. Wont be my first choice to return here.

Reasonably priced, good location and fairly clean. Friendly staff, hard for parking if you have large car under the building but out the back heaps of room. Would stay again

I stayed here recently and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience. While we did our best to leave the room in good condition, the hotel is now refusing to return our $300 deposit due to "rubbish in the bins" and "a dirty towel" — both of which are completely normal for a guest to leave behind and should be expected as part of standard housekeeping. What makes this even more frustrating is the poor condition of the room itself. The bathroom had visible mould, which made it unpleasant and unhygienic to use. The carpet, the lamps and the bed base had stains. The bed’s were uncomfortable cheap mattresses. The room was not up to the standards you'd expect, especially considering the deposit they demand. Additionally, we were messed around with our booking — after confirming in advance they could accomodate us with rooms side by side, on arrival this was not the case our two rooms ended up being complete opposite ends of the floor, this caused unnecessary stress and inconvenience at check-in. All in all, the service was unprofessional, the facilities were below standard, and holding onto our deposit over minor, routine cleaning issues feels like a money grab. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone and would advise others to look elsewhere.

I stayed there for 2 nights and on the first night was bitten excessively by what I can only assume was bed bugs and the room stunk of cigarettes. I told reception about it and they promised me that they will send housekeeping to do a clean up. I got back the following day after a long and they assured me that they did a thorough cleaning, but it was worse than the night before that I had to slather myself in tea tree oil to repel the bugs and mask the smell. They didn't seem to have done anything at all. I opened up the microwave the morning I was leaving to reheat a coffee and then microwave was very dirty, meaning it was never cleaned before I checked in. This place is a health hazard. I asked them to atleast help me open a window, but nothing was done and their tv remote wasn't working and nothing was done about it either. Attached are some of photos of bedbug bites from my hands, I've got them all over my hands and and body especially around my ankles and they truly hurt and keep swelling up.
