Location, location, location. This condo is right in the heart of the Melbourne CBD and is super conveniently surrounded by food choices, especially Asian ones. An asian supermarket right in the lane way provided lots of basic necessities as well as beer/liquor.
Which is just as well, since the kitchen was equipped only for very simple cooking. It’s a good spot if you’re a single person who doesn’t cook and plan to eat out a lot. The place does give the impression of being a crammed shared house, as there is the living room is sectioned off with a Japanese screen for another guest/tenant. The furniture is simple, and would probably fall in the category of “budget” rather than “comfort”.
We didn’t use the gym, but we very much enjoyed the swimming pool for lap swimming. The hot tub and sauna were under out-of-order when we were there, but hopefully that can be remedied soon.
