We booked here so we could walk to the Sydney Myer Music Bowl for a concert. Advertised 'premium cable tv' (outdated info) it was an old Chanchong analog TV with about 6 channels - no HD channels. Asked about replacement the guy at the reception said angrily he is 'sick of people complaining about the TV' - I'm sorry who doesn't have HD TV's these days. The fridge was broken and there was no replacement, they offered to put our food in their fridge though we wouldn't have any access to it until morning, so we wrapped in a wet towel on the bench for the night. Enquired about getting another room, and was told that the motel was booked out, there's 44 rooms and only 6 cars in the car park at 11.30pm. The female receptionist was very rude saying 'what do you expect when you only pay $147.00 after Expedia take their commision, the parking is worth $25 a night.' Yes it is cheap for Melb, and we didn't expect perfect for this price, though they advertise one thing and deliver another, I am entitled to question it. The bed was ok, only good thing. Dining chairs were stained and very saggy, something lumpy stuck on side of the dining table, the bedside table had wax? on it, rubbish bin hadn't been emptied, no exhaust fan in the bathroom, everything was damp after a shower. We were offered a refund of their cost $147 and then we go and find another motel, this was at 6pm, so finding another motel wasn't an option. Their attitude was 'thats what's there, take it or leave it.

The staff here denied our staff member a room after demanding a $250 bond be paid after we had already paid for the room. We were NOT advised of this at any stage of placing the booking. Will never stay here again

In room spa bath is great but it's run down, Old TV with very limited channels, Duvet with no cover between two sheets, Bed smelt of mens body odour. Room needs a serious revamp and update to 2024 standards and cleanliness definitely needs improvement.

This place in need a a massive upgrade. For the price we paid for the night, it really wasn't that nice. There were cobwebs in the bathroom, mould in the grout, stains in the bath (spa bath- i imagine the jets would be filthy too), blood or other on the top of the doona (under the sheet/cover). The beds and pillows were also average. On a positive note the location to the tram and soon to be new station at ANZAC Station was handy. Reception staff were also friendly.

The room was okay, the reception on the tele was poor and the bathroom could do with a deep clean, mouldy grout and a stained bath, the bed moved a bit due to being on rollers! The lift was good and the check in process was okay, bit of a battle trying to get into the place due to cranes and trucks, but for the money it served a purpose

The staff were wonderful, however the lift was broken on 2 days of our 3 day stay. The rooms were extremely dated and dirty. The type of dirty that is built up over time, grime on the kick boards, stains on the white sheets and the wet area was a disgrace, mould like substance throughout the shower. The sink was leaking into a bucket under the sink with a sign saying do not remove. Water damage to the cabinets. Guest book advised there was foxtel channels, but there wasn’t. Property was in a convenient location close to a tram and just 15 mins in to the CBD. A great hotel if you are after a quick stop in and not intend to shower.

Information on the wotif confirmation email was incorrect: it said the front desk was open until 11pm. When I phoned at 8:30pm I was told it was about to close and I needed to get there quickly! We had to leave our concert early to check in. Also, when I phoned the previous day I was told parking for an extra car was $10 and when we arrived I was about to be charged $20 until I showed the phone record. The room was adequate, bed comfortable, linen clean. The shower taps were very difficult to turn, but the water pressure was great.
