Kevin Australia

Nice location on Bourke Street (which has lovely old architecture) and very close to the Southern Cross train station. Easy to get around the CBD from here. Our unit was on the 6th floor - living room w/kitchen, dining area + balcony downstairs with 2 nice sized bedrooms, 1 bath + 1 balcony upstairs. Cozy sized unit buy big enough for 4 adults. Quiet and clean too. There is a breakfast offering in the lobby each morning that looked nice, but we just ate in our room (we did get coffee in lobby). Very pleased with this hotel.

Flora-bama United States of America

The staff are most friendly, we were allocate a room to freshen upon arrival and to store our luggage, since we hv to be at Ibis on Little Bourke St next street for the pickup to Philip Island. The location is just across from King Cross Station where SkyBus services conects us to Avalon Airport. Plan to stay again with friends for our future trip.
