This is a lovely, modest hotel in an ideal location for walking & attending events in Melbourne. Recently updated with a pleasing colour palette. Courteous & friendly, helpful staff, parking available close by. Wonderful comfortable bed & pillows, room temperature suitable for sleeping. The bathroom while original was so clean, and has a feature not found in many more modern hotels, the mirror is not affected by shower steam.

No staff around for check in which was disappointing, paid for a deluxe King bed/room which ended up being 2 singles pushed together. Unfortunately no parking onsite. You have to park your car in the public carpark around the corner and walk back to the hotel which is annoying for unloading luggage. TV has no facilities for cable channels or to use streaming services. Overall average stay. Felt it was overpriced for what we got.
