The \"likes\" for 16 days of stay - a home away from home :
a) The location is very close to Chadstone Shopping Mall, Subway, Hungry Jacks and Oakleigh etc

b) The bed, pillows and bedding were superb and clean

c) The sofa/bed was very comfortable and clean

d) The bathroom was clean and has hot water on the fly - the complimentary shower gel, shampoo, conditioner and hand wash were superb!

e) The concealed washing machine and dryer was a life saver, it was sound proof while in operation - Kudos! Not forgetting about the mobile drying rack!

f) The utensils provided were clean and adequate for light cooking

g) Carpark was ample and ease of access from 2 entry/exit zones

h) I was lucky to be allocated in the non-road facing unit with a balcony - peaceful rest and beautiful views on bright sunny days!

i) Last but not least, the complimentary Nespresso pods with the machine - Nice touch!

The \"improvements\" :
a) Shower head with flexible tubing instead of the short arm version (semi-flexible)

b) A mobile heater fan (the affordable one from KMart @ AUD 15)

Good location, close to chadstone Shopping Centre. Cups in cupboard were not clean & had to scrub them with scoura & Washing machine powder. This may have been due to a guest who didn't bother to clean cups & just put them into the cupboard dirty. Room was very small would be better to remove the table and the office chair on wheels.

Limited undercover parking but regardless of whether parking was undercover or in the open the charge was a flat $15 extra per night. Toaster was supplied but it did not work. No milk - fresh or long life UHT - was provided and their lame excuse was because the milk they had was past its use by date!

Property was close to our destination but that’s about it.
First we’re given the wrong room and then moved to a balcony room as requested with filthy chairs and aircon taking up the entire space.
Most uncomfortable bed I’ve ever paid to sleep in. Partner and I were smooshed together into the saggy middle all night.
Old stained mugs, no teaspoons, no face cloths. Just a real lack of attention to detail.
Split system was so loud it almost drowned out the traffic noise.
Paid way too much to stay here, even paid extra for outside car space
Never again.

Very lovely staff . Clean property . Good internet . Only issue is that people had a fight on the room next to me and were calling each other names right outside my room’s door . One of them finally left and slammed the door- went to another room , then came out and was knocking the door. All that took place around 01:00 the morning

The whole city sucks, but this hotel is fine. This is the only sparking spot of my trip to this city.

For those Asian from HK or mainland of China, be prepared to spend one hour or so at the airport after customs check. This is because they will lead you to the dog to check if you have anything even if you claim nothing, regardless of your visa type.

Reasonable sized room. Bed was comfortable, nice shower. Lower floor near the road is noisy, upper room above the car park is quiet. Restaurant is meant to be good and was busy, but we didn't try it. Furniture in our room was old and tatty. If you pay for parking, you have to use a key to get a pole down, which is a bit cumbersome.

The rooms were dirty, there was bit's of food on the bench top's and blood smeared on the mirror in the bedroom and a dirty syringe in the fan in the bathroom. The couch and bed mustve been used as a trampoline as they both had sag dents and were terrible.
I would not recommend this place to anyone, even the bed bug's had moved on.

Liked: Close to our location of interest and a comfy bed.
Disliked:
The uncleanliness of the room, which included the following.
Black mould in the shower, dirty stains up the wall behind the bedside cabinets,
the stains under the glass on top of the cabinets,
stained duvet,
unsightly torn lampshade,
no heated towel rail,
lighting in bathroom very poor,
no phone in room to be able to call reception or outside ( even though the room info sheet says dial “9” to contact reception.
Photos on website do not represent the true image of the room.
Many years of travelling overseas and this would be one of the worst accomodation we have stayed at.
Would not recommend.

More care needs to be taken to ensure rooms are adequately maintained. For example, the phone didn’t work, the fridge leaked onto the floor, the toilet seat broke and the shower handle came off the wall.

On the plus side, when the staff were present they were very friendly and helpful,
The proximity to Chadstone is an easy 15 min walk.

On entry to the room first thing I noticed was the smell of cigarettes. 2nd thing the dirty walls and ceilings. Then while trying to sleep I realised that I'm sleeping (trying to) on one of the worst beds I've ever slept on. And then while trying to go to sleep I get waken up by the crazy loud road noise! Then I tried sitting down on the lounge in the morning to have a coffee with my wife and realised I'm sitting on the worst couch I've sat on in a while. Basically my experience in your Hotel was sub standard. Your windows may be to the required minimum noise standard but seriously, if your going to build a hotel on an intersection and a busy one at that, you should consider installing above the minimum requirements in noise insulation. Thank god for the good weather over Easter in Melbourne which helped keep us out and about rather inside the room at the hotel....
