"Overnighted before golf trip to King Island from Essendon. An easy walk although shuttle is available. Cannot find fault, Mc Crackens restaurant delivered a steak to die for with a reasonably priced enjoyable red to wash it down. Would most definitely return."

"With good facilities and access to local shops etc, this was a good place to stay on our recent trip. Only negatived were the small heard of elephants staying in the room above ours (could audibly hear them stomp around upstairs) - small lack of secure parking available onsite (had to park on street one night and move my car very early as was metered from 6am) and the one night we arrived back at around 11pm (just before) to find key card wouldn't open the boom gate - rushed into office before it closed to be told that the rooms had had new access cards fitted that day and the 2 key cards we had had to be replaced - would have been good to be told this only the day before when we checked in as we wouldn't have been able to get int our room either!! Few negatives, but overall a good experience"

"Absolutely hands down the best place i have ever stayed. Never had more attentive, caring, empathetic, compassionate and understanding staff than Belinda and the NZ girl (sorry I can’t remember her name - Tameka?!) no issue / request was too hard or annoying. I cannot praise them enough honestly. Spewing I couldn’t stay longer than I already had. Room had everything you could need - including a chromecast on the tv. And surrounding shops are perfect for everything - coffee, shopping etc etc. 150% will stay here again in a heartbeat when I come back to Melbs. Potentially would even look into renting a room to live in if I ever moved back to Melbourne. It was THAT good. Awesome music playing in the reception area too!! 💃🏼 Cannot speak more highly of the staff and the apartment. I miss the balcony and watching over the street! If you stay in Melbourne - 10,000% stay here - 15 mins to the airport and close to shops, train etc etc. I will most definately return! "
