    The location was good, and we could reach Swanston Street by walking. The property was set in a downstairs lounge area.

    Unfortunately Wi-Fi was hopeless.

    Comfortable and cozy room, with a beautiful, strong, and warm shower. The hotel is conveniently located close to the Royal Exhibition Buildings, Lygon Street, and Queen Victoria Markets. Despite the small size of the room and the lack of some amenities, the value for money was great. We had a pleasant stay overall and would recommend this hotel.
