No frills accommodation in a prime location. Not the cleanest, however the beds were & fresh towels each day. You get what you pay for - somewhere to sleep, wash & eat. Perfect location for walking to most major sporting events, 5 - 10 minute tram ride to Flinders St & city center. Can be a little noisy on weekends... More

No security after dark, people running up and down the landings banging on doors, door to the balcony would not shut or lock, sticky substance on the floor of the small bath, shower curtain blows in on your legs, light bulbs missing, camp style chairs not at all confortable, oil heater lost one wheel, room was not serviced at all....

It's simple and has a great location. Not the cleanest place I've stayed but handy to the 'MCG' I also got a late checkout which was very much appreciated! Parking included which makes it even better value.

We stay here for a weekend to go to footy, there is only about 5 parking spaces (for small cars) there is very limited street parking, the room size was great, but that was the only good thing about the room, customer service was poor at best, after staying here we are now spending extra on accommodation to have something...

My boyfriend and I stayed here for a week, and i thought it was fine for what we needed at the time. At the end of the day we just wanted a bed and a shower, as we went out from 9 in the morning, and came home about midnight. Yeah the bathroom was a little old, but the water... More

Stayed here Grand Final weekend. For the price was not expecting 5 star and didn't get 5 star! Yes it is old and tired and in desperate need of upgrade but it was clean and the staff polite even letting us into our room at 8am!!!!! Great location and would go back without expecting 5 stars at 2.5 star prices!

This is a general warning to all travelers - no matter what your budget is or what you're looking for. Do not consider this place! Due to lack of 24 hours reception, we had to call a mobile number to check in (which was fine by us). Incredulously, we were given our room number and told that the key would... More
