The facilities are modest but they are clean and they are very conveniently located opposite West Richmond station. The staff are proactive, friendly and professional. Definitely a big plus. If you need a bed to rest in and you don't require fancy hotel style facilities, you'll be satisfied with your stay here.

I just stayed here for one night because all I needed was a bed. Couple of good points - very conveniently located for Melbourne’s entertainment precinct. Off street parking free and I found one about 40meters away. Owner was very helpful with this. Rooms are bed only. Well, and a much needed fan. My fan was old and cluttered away whilst I tried getting to sleep but by morning was quiet as its’ cover had fallen off. And it was literally the only appliance in the room. Shared shower and toilets were clean but basic. So I got what I expected for the price. I would contemplate the same location again. However the metal frames beds are rather cheap and nasty. Upgrading them as time progresses should be a priority. And weirdly - when you book in you get a code to the shared front enterance. If you want a key to your room it’s a $50 deposit I think. I’ve not really encountered this before. And every door seems to have a padlock on it which I have no idea what it was for. Didn’t matter to me as I took my valuables out with me and left my door unlocked, but it was somewhat strange.

Terrible night of sleep

I would not stay at this hotel again. It was loud (internally and externally), bad bed and bedding, terrible styling (free stuff in gumtree would make better vibes than their furniture). Also, you can lock the room from inside but they provide no keys, meaning if you go to the toilet you may get robbed. Really worth putting $10-20 more and getting a proper place to stay.

Cheap and cheerful, clean enough. Friendly. Comfy bed. It's not fancy but I didn't expect it to be - a private room for not much more than a bunk at a Backpackers, and cleaner. Cool old building too.

The owner, Ray, is very friendly and lovely to chat with. Staff were lovely. Stayed overnight due to having a concert at Rod Laver Arena and was convenient for what I needed. The traffic/trains can be a bit loud but it didn’t effect me as I wasn’t there for overly long. Overall, great place for the price!
