My wife and I stayed here only for one night in mid May. We have stayed here quite a few times over the last 7 years but there is more competition in Melbourne CBD these days and we like to get value for money. We checked in around 12.30PM and our room was available. It was up on the 10th... More

I was in Melbourne for work for a week and my wife accompanied me. We stayed in a one bedrrom apartment which was quite comfortable. Large living area with a lounge and kitchen. Staff were friendly. Close to MCG for footie and the free tram. Excellent value for the location. Would be good if it had a gym. You parked... More

We stayed here for 4 nights and found the staff friendly and the apartment clean and in good order. The living/room kitchen area is large and the kitchen is simple but has most of the things you would need - no dishwasher, though. Our apartment faced onto Elizabeth St and had a good view of the street below - it... More

We stayed in a one bedroom apartment on the 6th floor. The main living room/kitchen area is quite large and well furnished. The bedroom is separate and is very comfortable. The bathroom is spacious and is located at the end of the hall near the entrance door. The tiles around the bath/shower need to be renovated as the grout is... More

Handy location, short walk to work, and an assortment of great eateries. Easy walk to MCG, good exercise to get to Etihad. Staff very helpful and apologetic when guest in next room caused disturbance. Only complaint was the clock radio didnt work and an iPhone charger/radio would be good next to the bed. More

We were travelling back to the UK from New Zealand and decided to have a 4 day stopover in Melbourne. Our aunt and uncle from Sydney were joining us so we booked a 2 bed apartment at the Mantra Exhibition. When we arrived and saw the apartment we were disappointed at first sight. It was so much smaller than we... More

Stayed two nights last week in a one bedroom apartment. The apartment was on the 10th floor but the lift only goes to the ninth and you have to negotiate some steep stairs. The apartment itself is spacious but it is getting tired. The shower was showing signs of mould and the bathroom itself is in need of upgrading. We... More

Stayed 5 days at this service apartment in a 1-bedroom unit and found it spacious and clean. However, it takes some time for the sole aircon in the unit to heat up/cool down the room and there is no shower curtain available which irritates me as I do not appreciate a wet bathroom. It comes fully equipped with pots/pans/microwave/knife and... More

We (couple + teenager) stayed here over easter for 3 nights. The location is hard to beat as we were able to walk everywhere: Hisense Arena (near the MCG); Brunswick Street; Lygon Street; Federation Square; Pellegrini's; Chinatown - Melbourne Central etc. Transport was practically at the door plus 711s very close by. The staff were helpful and friendly. When we... More
