Comfortable Rooms and Convenient Services to Enhance Your Layover

Spacious Family Room

“I stayed in the Large Family Room, perfect for my family of five. There was enough space for all of us to move around comfortably, and it was accommodating enough to fit a portacot without feeling cramped. The beds were surprisingly comfortable, and I had a great night's sleep despite my usual hip and pelvic issues.” view full review

Amazing Showers

“One of the highlights of my stay was the shower. It had strong, hot water, made for a refreshing and invigorating experience after a long day. I really enjoyed how satisfying it was, and it felt luxurious even though it was a budget stay.” view full review

Well-Equipped Rooms

“I appreciated the thoughtful amenities in the room. It came with a good-sized fridge, a microwave, and a kettle, making it easy to prepare quick snacks. The TV was also a nice feature, providing entertainment after busy days. These little touches made my stay more enjoyable.” view full review

Delicious Onsite Dining

“Each morning, my friends and I couldn't resist visiting the nearby restaurant owned by the same owners. The breakfast was absolutely good and the food was so good that we found ourselves going back daily. It was the perfect start to our busy days exploring Melbourne!” view full review
