In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
3 reasons to book- Room for living, not just sleeping — Guests repeatedly mention spacious, well-equipped apartments with outdoor terraces, full kitchens, and washing machines.

–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Check-in happens off-site — You'll need to go to Swanston Street to pick up keys — a step some guests found inconvenient.
- Sound carries between floors — The building isn't well soundproofed, and noise from upstairs neighbours can be an issue.
- In-room communications can be glitchy — One guest reported a faulty phone and a lack of local information in the room.
- No airport shuttle drop-off — The Skybus doesn't stop here, so plan your transfer in advance.
