The property was clean and offered a good level of privacy, which I appreciated. It's also very conveniently located—just a short commute to the city center, making it ideal for exploring Melbourne. The only downside was the noise from neighboring units; the walls lack proper soundproofing, so you can clearly hear doors opening and closing, voices, and even TV sounds from adjacent apartments. This was noticeable, especially at night. Despite that, I still enjoyed my stay overall. The apartment was well-maintained, comfortable, and offered great value for money. If I'm back in Melbourne, I’d definitely consider staying here again.

It’s just a 5 to 10-minute walk to the tram station, making it super convenient to reach the city center without needing to switch lines. Breakfast was consistent every day and consistently high quality—fresh, well-prepared, and satisfying. The room was spacious with two generous queen-sized beds, offering plenty of comfort for couples or families. One minor issue: the faucet is positioned very close to the sink, which made handwashing slightly awkward. Dining options and bars are a bit further away—about a 15-minute walk—but that’s manageable.
