The essence hotel has an amazing location! Very close to the city, but still a little bit away so you avoid all the noise…. The hotel offers a nice room with plenty of space for one person! The hotel however can be a bit messy, because the shared kitchen is a bit dirty and the tv never worked at my room and the minifridge was pretty broken…. Nevertheless it is a good experience if one is looking for a good experience in Melbourne where you can walk to the CBD in 5-10 mins!
