    Great experience. Recommended!”

    It was a great experience for our family who stayed at this property. They don't have any on side service/front desk so everything is done via email which is not a problem. They are pretty fast on their action if you ever need anything. One thing that should be improved is the collection of the key. It is 5 minutes walk and if you travel with kids, it will be quite a hassle. but overall, it's a great place. Truly recommended

    Excellent location right in the middle of Elizabeth St with tramp stop just in front of the apartment, plenty of halal eateries, convenient stores and walking distance to Victoria state Library. We took the free tramp to the iconic Flinder's Station and the tramp stops right in front of Coles Supermarket. The only downside is parking at the nearby multistory car park was super expensive ie $50-$74/night. Other than parking issue, everything is perfect.

    Good location, but inconvenience for pick up and drop off the key.”

    My room is located at floor 59 with stunning city view, the room is new and clean with full kitchenware, i love that the Ifsuite consider about the environment when using the full size shampoo and shower gel, there is no washing machine. Definitely love it prime location, the Asian supermarket is located next building, the Woolworth is nearby, Melbourne central and Qv shopping center 1' away, there are many choice of restaurant around. If you are travel alone with luggage, it is hard when you need to pick up and drop off the key from the office, as the distance is not far enough to call a cab and there is no luggage keeping at The light.

    The two weeks of stay at IFSTAYS - Lighthouse was a really nice experience. The apartment was nice spacious and clean, and all the request were well fulfilled with a very reasonable price. If I were to mention a downside, it would be more convenient to have collected and returned the keys at the place as I was taking a lot of luggages, but that didn't affect the quality of their services for accommodation. Would recommend for others!

    Pros: Very near to Tourist attractions; Free Tram Zone in front of the building. Walking distance to Central Terminal. Asian Convenient Store right at the ground floor. Very near the Bourke Mall. The unit is spacious and comes with cooking amenities. Netflix is definitely a plus. Rooms have a great view of the city from the floor to ceiling glass window. Staffs were very accommodating and quick to respond. Cons. Long queue in the elevator. You will get the key from another establishment located near the building (but not an issue at all). But over all, our stay was very convenient and will definitely be back. Highly recommended.

    Great apartment in a fantastic location”

    I stayed here for a week whilst doing an intensive at Melbourne Uni. Lighthouse is a fantastic location, close to the uni, public transport and loads of foodie spots! The staff at IFSTAYS were also amazing and very helpful. The only negative for me was that the room smelled quite badly of cigarette smoke when I first checked in (which should really have been addressed with before I arrived). When I informed the staff it was dealt within a couple of hours and the rest of my stay was easy breathing :) I will most definitely be back as this apartment offered everything you need for a week or two away at a fraction of the cost of a lot of other places in Melbs.

    The hotel apartment is very near to QV Market, there is an asian supermarket a few doors away. the only issue staying here is that the check in office/key collection office is a block away. if you plan to stay here, do drop your luggage first, (with someone to take care of it) while you walk to the key collection office. the room/studio is of a decent size for couple (we booked the 1 room apartment). kitchen is well equipped. I just wished there is a washing machine and dryer, other than that its good!. oh we stayed for a week, and there was a cleaning service in the middle of the week. which was good. It is within the free tram zone, and just a tram ride away to bourke street mall, la trobe, collins, and flinders street/ flinders train station. i will definitely consider this hotel/apartment again!
