The rooms are smelly and never vacummed, showers dont have extractor fans and kitchen does not have working rangehood. Reception is never attended and phone calls are not answered as if they are avoiding contact with the guests. Dont stay here if you can avoid.

Cleanliness is shocking, staff needs to chill

Posted 3 Feb 2024 on Hotels
Convenient location, well priced and overall the facilities are relatively new, not as bad as some of the horrifying reviews on Google Maps. However, during my stay the cleanliness was shocking, obviously someone has been slack or not getting paid enough to care. Had spider web hanging in my room, and the dust on bed head was quite thick. Half roll of toilet paper left when I checked in. Arrived 30 minutes late and the after hour check in lady needs to chill, made me standing at the car park for 45 minutes before she handed me the keys.

Location & communication are awesome. Cleanliness is hopeless. Previous guests hair everywhere, toilet bowl & sink probably not even wiped, so dirty to the point where you start laughing.

Booked 3 weeks in advance for 4 days for 3 people. Confirmation email received a day before we flew into melbourne reflected the booking for 3 people. When we arrived the very rude manager told us the room only accomodated 2 people but we had paid for 3 people. She was the rudest manager ive ever met and she refused a refund and hung up on us when we called. She shouldnt work as a manager, she is ruining the reputation of the business. Started legal proceedings to recover our refund. Avoid this place. Not worth the effort.

Not sure why you can’t open a window even a little bit. Room smell’s because of this.

The property was perfectly suited for my work related stay, and the apartment/facilities fantastic for the price. Not sure why the other reviews are so critical, but considering the price point one should not be complaining about slightly outdated decor. I've stayed in much more expensive places locally with far less inclusions. I had no issues with cleanliness and front desk staff were lovely. It was quiet and safe.
