The room is small and the facilities feel a bit dated, with only a bottle of shampoo and shower gel provided—no other disposable amenities.

Absolutely loved staying at Molly's Little Apartments in Melbourne—this place deserves a perfect 10/10. The value for money is outstanding, and every detail feels thoughtfully designed. The apartment is spacious, spotlessly clean, and comes fully equipped with kitchen essentials—perfect for cooking meals or just enjoying a homey vibe. The bathroom is generously sized, and while they provide small hotel-style bottles of soap and shampoo, I’d recommend bringing your own if you're staying longer. The towels are a bit on the thin side, but functional. Two pillows on the bed were just right—one firm, one soft—ideal for a good night’s sleep. There’s a washing machine (no dryer), but a great drying rack makes air-drying quick and easy. The living room has an AC that doubles as a heater, which was a lifesaver during cooler months. The bedroom has windows for ventilation, so even without a heater, it stayed cozy. The large balcony is a real highlight—perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation. Right below the building is a well-stocked mini mart with everything you need. Location-wise, it’s unbeatable: walking distance to Emporium, Chinatown, Thai Town, Koreatown, Southern Cross Station, and Victoria Market.
