I booked here after finding it cheap on the internet. After booking and paying for the accommodation i found a lot of bad reviews on it, so was very worried when heading down to Melbourne for the weekend. i need not be as i found it to be better than a lot of places i have stayed in. yes it had its bad points but its good points out weighed the bad. we turned up about lunch time on Friday and the reception was very nice and spoke very politely. They let us in our apartment even though check in time was 2pm. The apartment was a 2 bedroom apartment which consisted of a queen bed in one room and 2 singles in the other. In the lounge you had 2 comfy couches, dining table, lcd tv, dvd player and a full kitchen. In bathroom there was a dryer and washing machine. I loved that they supplied washing powder, dish-washing liquid, tea towels, and basically everything you needed to clean apartment. The apartment was really clean other than a small stain on carpet as you walked in door. The bedding was very stylish and really nice. Ok the bathroom was a bit old looking but who needs a flashy bathroom. I had read in other reviews on the internet where they said the noise was really loud but i didn't find it any louder than other places i had stayed. yes the train runs right behind the apartments but by the second night i didnt really even notice them when they went passed. It is in a excellent location with train station around the corner, trams running close by and chapel st a block away. ok now on to the bad things....there arent many. Our heater didnt work in the room( but thankfully it wasnt to cold) one bedroom door got stuck and had to be opened from the inside, paint peeling off bath and a broken toilet seat. thats all i could find wrong with these apartments. i have booked to stay here again in 3 weeks time.

Approximate cost: $138 for 2 bed apartment
