Some of the reviews on here are really quite unfair. Accommodation in Melbourne is generally a lot more expensive than other parts of Australia. To get a private room with your own bathroom for this price is good. The location is also great- near to the train station, shops all around, a supermarket next door and a nice shopping mall. The bedroom and bathroom were clean and although our chest of drawers were broken(the runners had broken) we slid the drawers under the bed and used them like that. Everything else was fine with an armchair in the room also and a hairdryer provided. The beds are a bit creaky but comfortable and the lighting in the rooms and bathroom good . Considering that it is a facility with about 7 rooms each with their own bathroom, it was really very quiet. The shared kitchen was ok and much better than reviews would have had us believe. Mostly no one bothers to empty the bin but that is the residents responsibility. Fridge/freezer was very clean and all equipment worked (toasted sandwich maker, kettle,microwave, etc) We saw no evidence of mice as previously mentioned. We would stay there again- it is good value.
