Great hotel for the price, the room did have a a bit of a Smokey smell despite being listed as non-smoking room. Other than that the place was clean, the bed was comfy, the shower had good pressure, and the location was perfect…all the things you need for a great stay away from home.

Fantastic location, staff are so kind, clean and comfortable, the 2 bedroom top floor apartment is one of the only ones in St Kilda with a balcony and privacy - view of the city in the distance. It is quiet, can't hear street noise or the trams. Close to everything. Just needed more glasses for 4 people in the room.
