The room was compact but did have mostly what we needed. Cleanliness and maintenance needs more attention. Blind in lounge area had something spilled all over it, the bathroom floor wasn’t vacuumed behind the door as there was hair on the floor. Room was quite dusty in some areas, skirting boards, floor beside couch. Hairdryer was damaged and would only turn off at power point. It also had burn marks/melted a bit. Lamps in both bedrooms were damaged but did work. The exhaust fan and light above hot plate didn’t work and was extremely greasy. For a 2 bedroom apartment with no or weekly servicing (we only stayed 4 nights), the supplies were very limited - 1 x 3cm piece of scourer for dishes, a tiny dish washing detergent that didn’t really clean the dishes, I sachet of dishwasher detergent etc. It was a great location as it was only a short walk to the tram stop, easy access from paid car park to building and it was quiet.

Was unable to contact reception before arriving at the hotel for an after hours check in (10pm). Was later (the next day) advised that reception was in fact, staffed until midnight however, during business hours (I called at 5pm to confirm) I was advised that reception is closed at 8pm and that I should call the reception number to be let in. I was very far from Box Hill so I called 9 times, went straight to a \"no message can be left on this service\". Expedia support team were unable to contact them as well. The hotel has since refused a refund and marked me as no-show. I think I made a calculated decision at close to 10pm by not being stranded at Box Hill of all places based on the information I had at hand, reception closes at 8, call us for after hours, no answer in repeated calls by both myself and Expedia. I will see if the ACCC see things my way otherwise I will accept their decision on who is at fault here. Shouldn't be an unreasonable request for a hotel to do what they said they will do and simply ensure your phone service works if you're advising out of town travellers to call before checking in after hours.

The Comfort Apartments are not somewhere I would rush back to. The room was a good size, the bathroom had a good pressure on the shower, the kitchen facilities basic, no glasses. No balcony as such, you could not sit out, only room for the air con unit. The skirting in the apartment was unclean, the carpet fraying in one area. The bed was not comfortable. The upside, it's close to the shopping centre and transport. Was actually quite disappointed.🙁

We arrived at 7.58 pm called the afterhours number multiple times and noone answered the phone after many attempts we went for dinner and continued to try calling finally at 8.45pm he answered the afterhours phone. We had driven 3.5hrs to get there for a hospital admission the next day and were fearful we had no were to stay if he didnt answer.
The next morning we had to get ready early to gobto hospital and the hairdryer in the room didnt work. They provided a replacement we were very disapointment in the service and no compensation made for the poor service yet this was not cheap. Also walls are dirty need to be cleaned or repainted and pillows were miniature. Will not stay again due to the afterhours phone issue with no compensation made 😒

Would not have initially chosen this accommodation - only that it was conveniently located to Aged Care facility where we were visiting relative. Room was small but sufficient. Could have provided more cutlery, especially if more than 2 pax were staying. eg.only 1xtablespoon and 1xsoup spoon provided, no tea-towel , no glasses provided. External steps leading to property had spillage and was not cleaned during our 2day stay. Overall property condition was fair and could do with an upgrade and better cleaning.

We booked our stay in order to have close access to the Epworth Hospital as we had an appointment at 7:15AM. The City Edge was ideally located to the hospital, shops, public transport and restaurants.
The room was more than adequate for a one night stay. Limited Parking (Safe & Secure) was available under the building at the cost of $15.00 which I thought reasonable as on street parking was limited. The one staff member we encountered was very helpful and friendly.
The room was very clean but had seen better days. I found the bed comfortable but I would have liked a top sheet as it was quite warm in the room. The room had a Television, micro wave, electric jug, a small refrigerator, a dishwasher, a washing machine but no toaster. The minimum amount of cups, plates and cutlery was also provided. Would be happy to stay again in the same circumstances.

Tossing up between 3 and 4 stars. The location to Box Hill train station, Box Hill Hospital and Epworth Eastern is fantastic. Only 5 min walk from each. Front desk was great, helpful and friendly.
The room looks bigger in the photos, there was not a lot of space to the room. No Foxtel, although that's not a big deal. The bed was a little hard, but that's just a personal thing. The shower head was loose, so having a shower was a chore. The worst part though was the air conditioner. It sounded like there was an airplane taking off in the room it was so loud, so we could only have it on for short periods of time before we got a headache.

We were kept awake both nights by slamming doors at all hours of the night and someone singing in the hallway at 2:00am one night. The exterior surroundings were very daggy and full of graffiti, definitely no city view. A lot of dogdy people around.

As others have said, the rooms could do with a bit of TLC - marks on walls, some areas where there were deep scratches into the wall structure, soap scum still visible in the bathroom, shower corners had mould growth, dust accumulation around bottom areas of structures such as tables and beds. There was also no clear structure of how housekeeping works - despite the property rules stating that they will clean the rooms once a week, I had housekeeping provide change of towels 4 times in the first week, twice in the second week and nothing after that in my month long stay there. I don't feel the bedsheets were ever changed in my 30 day stay, and towards the end I had to request for more shower amenities because housekeeping had not returned since the second week of my 4 week stay.
