10/10 Exceptional

This is a really nice hotel to stay at, conveniently located for both driving and public transport. It's also sat on top a pub which is great! Staff were always friendly and helpful, and the hotel itself is clean and feels modern. My room wasn't the biggest, but plenty large enough as a base from which to explore Melbourne. The guest laundry is well stocked with washers, dryers, irons and detergent. It can get a little noisy at times as it's sat right next to a busy road, but mostly wasn't too bad, and generally coincides with rush hour. Good value for money and would return in the future.

Stayed earlier in the year, room, bed and bathroom all great as before. Some noise at night from trucks at rail works nearby, but didn’t interrupt to much. Bistro service great again but the food wasn’t as good as the last visit. Great service from all the staff.

Clean and friendly staff, and very convenient if you are into public transport. Just the shares toilet and bath is a bit of a inconvinience, imagine having to pee in the middle of your sleep. But overall, this hotel is very good
