Wonderful stay in Melbourne CBD”

Very easy and quick check-in. Easy to find the room. The lift very fast but a bit crowded for 52 floors. The apartment is very clean. Location excellent near Southern Cross. Sufficient kitchen amenities. Everything working well. Good wifi connection. 1 BR apartment is quite spacious for couple. Spacious toilet and shower also. The office is near the apartment so easy to contact and can be sorted out if there is any issues. If the office can provide luggage storage, it will be excellent for travelers who arrived early or late departure. I hope IFSTAY will consider this in the future.

Exceptional”

Thanks to Winnie and Anna who had provided very good services, e.g. early check in

Exceptional”

Good location. Good staffs. One downside was the limited number of lifts. There are 4 lifts, but often, only 2 works. And to serve more than 50 floors, it’s just not enough. On my final day, I had to wait for more than 30 mins to get to the 1st floor, which caused me being late for check-out. But the staff was very understanding.

Recommended!!”

Location of the place is very convinient. Near to the Southern Cross Station where you can take the bus to the airport.. and also within the free tram zone.. all in juat walking distance of 5-10 mins.. the hotel le us checked in.. the staff at the reception was very attentive.. my apartment was at the midtown apartment.. The apartment it self was clean.. with all facilities provided except for a dryer.. anyway there is a self service laundry at the ground floor so I can dry my clothes there.. overall i totally recommend this apartment for a long stay in Melbourne..

Serviced apartment with NO SERVICES”

Pros: good location, building looks new, great layout and spacious apartment. Cons: Service was close to none. Toiletries not provided, no bathroom slippers. Doesn’t provide any international plug converter. The last time I stayed in a proper serviced apartment in NSW, service was a ton better than this. Overall: wouldn’t stay again.

Spacious, Relatively Clean”

The apartment was spacious and value for money. Room is also relatively clean. Only downside I would say is that the facilities may not be in its optimal working condition (Electric kettle lid seemed stuck, could not open it, but workaround it by pouring water in and out from the kettle stout instead). But all facilities are still usable nonetheless. Utensils and soap are provided. There is even an oven in the apartment. For the space, price and cleanliness, I would recommend this place and would return again.

Lovely place”

We went during winter and aircon was used as a heater so it wasn’t effective, got a portable heater upon request but overall it was great, from the hospitality of the staff (thanks Silvia!) to the entire apartment :)

Is nomarl”

Stay along time but not have any helper to clearn room, everything is small & nomarl.

Convenient and comfortable”

Everything from comfort to location, this is the hotel. The only con is that there is totally no housekeeping for the 6 nights' stay.

52 floor apartment & lifts 15min wait most times”

The room was lovely, nice hard bed, hot shower no issues with the room it's self. We were disappointed there was no spa or sauna as listed when we booked just pool & gym. There are 3 appartment buildings so depends where you are placed. Biggest issue the lifts all the unis are nearby so there are hundreds of Asian students staying here & getting a lift you can fit in was a 10-15min task most days! Right across from Spencer St station & dfo so location is great & cute little Korean restaurant downstairs.

Great Stay”

This apartment was about a 5 mins walk away from Southern Cross station, the Airport Bus Terminal, the mall, supermarket; location was excellent. Asian restaurants and a small mart were just downstairs. The room was clean. The carpet had some stains, but it wasn't a big deal. Dining table had scratches but it's okay for us. The kitchen was quite nice. Electric stove worked well. The cooking pots, plates and utensils provided were clean. The bathroom was nice in general - a bit mouldy - but tolerable for us. Shower water pressure was excellent. The balcony was dusty so we wore shoes out there. The view was relatively nice, but partially blocked by surrounding buildings. The room only had one standard-sized aircon unit for the two bedrooms, the living room and kitchen, so the conditioned air couldn't reach one of the bedrooms effectively. Also, the front door handle and lock were a bit loose, would be better if they were strengthened. Overall, great stay. 8.3/10.

Excellent location and value for money ”

The room is clean and comfort, the apartment is 3~5 mins walk from Southern Cross station. There are many cafes and restaurants in walking distant. Coles supermarket Is just opposite of the apartment. Free tram station is only 3 mins walking distant from apartment. The reception staffs Ms Winnie, Anna and Michelle are very friendly and helpful, they are very polite and quick respond to your request. We are very happy with our stay in this service apartment and will definitely recommend to friends who want to travel to Melbourne

Great location”

Great location, is right next to southern cross station/Spencer st DFO/Coles. The direction to the gym was a bit confusing. Also, for the duration of my stay the internet speed was very slow, don't know if this was temporary.

perfect location”

we spend 7 nights here. everything was perfect especially location. right opposite southern cross station where u can get skybus to and from airport. free tram station jz 2-3 min walks from the house. nice view from our unit (36th floor). house keeping jz once along 7 days. easy to check in, when we reached is almost 12am, just have to key in the password at the key collecting point, the key will drop from the box and you are ready to enter your unit as shown on the key. highly recommend 👍

weird”

the Hotel i actually stayed in is Manhattan which was about 50 metres from a real estate agency, ie Ironfish R/e, which is the apartment key pickup point. (this is not disclosed on IFStays website). There appears to be no facility to drop-off bags earlier than checkin time which is not very helpful. the apartment itself was satisfactory. the mattress was as hard as a floor so i did not sleep well. the power point system is also strange ie not very compatible with device charging. I was also sent an email saying i would receive a $10 gift card for rating IFSTAYS west side as a 10. a no from me. would I stay there again? no.

RECOMMENDED”

Very spacious apartment with amazing view. Room were clean, so as the kitchen. Kitchen utensils were complete. If you stay about a week, they will clean your room on the third day. Location is very good, few minutes away from trem stop. Very close to southern cross station.

Convenient location and complete amenities ”

Would like to commend good service of winnie and anna for prompt assistance via email. The place is really nice with complete cooking amenities and washing. Location os good.

This was our second time staying here. Location and value for money are at its best! ”

Check in and check out were so quick and smooth! Thanks Winnie and Anna!

Superb apartment , locality accessible to train , sky bus n tram. Coles and eateries are closeby.”

I strongly recommend IfStays apartment which is near Southern Cross station, n accessible to sky bus to/fro airport. It’s Manager Coral Xiao is very helpful n attentive to our request for early check-in. We stayed at Manhattan block , unit is spacious n clean and fully furnished. I hope they provide kitchen scissors too.

It was a pleasant stay”

Pros -Responsive and helpful staff esp Anna. -Near to tram station, supermarket. -Fully equipped unit- washing machine, kitchen equipments. -Easy after hours check in and out. Cons -Our apartment was at a different location but still within walking distance. Better if we were informed earlier as we reached quite late. -Our room was left unlocked during one of the days. - Clogged bathroom sink. - No housekeeping throughout our 6 nights stay.
