The location of this was excellent, as it’s right outside Melbourne Central, which has easy access to the trains and trams.
However, the accommodation was much more run-down than shown in the listing. While the pictures made it seem as if the place was clean, the walls, corners, and fridge were very dirty and dusty. The key surface areas like the bathroom floor, kitchen top, table were decently clean, which is the bare minimum.
While this wasn’t within the host’s control, the hallway smelled of puke and trash, which thankfully stayed out of the room when the door is closed. But there is possibly a rubbish chute outside the window, as opening it filled the room with the smell of puke and trash too.
The above points have made the stay quite unpleasant. However, the check-in process was relatively smooth. The king-sized bed was also very soft and comfortable.
