Convenient and affordable, just a little dated and messy
I understand this is a low end option, but the place is awful. The quality of the room is beneath basic expectations. The room felt like it had not seen any basic maintenance in years, you pass wheeliebins in the corridor when trying to get to your room, the bed linen is clean but worn and clearly old, there are two mugs but no glasses in the room. Its a depressing place to return to, I am surprised ibis put their name to it.
I booked based on location and convenience for a work trip, during the week of the Australian open so few options. The pictures show a basic hotel but don't prepare you for the low quality. I bought as a package with flights, but i didn't get the feeling it was cheap, i regularly visit Melbourne on business and this did not come across as a cheap option. Was relieved to check out.
Housekeeping very poor. Cups not clean or replaced
Cockroaches found crawling
Bed lights not working

I guess you get what you pay for. The amenities were clean but it was basic. It WAS the budget IBIS. In saying that, I had what I needed - carpet could have been cleaner.

The hotel has worn carpet throughout. My wife was too embarrassed to invite friends in. Our unit was compact. The bedside lights didn't work. The air con did work.
We wont be back.
