Let's cut to the chase. I was bitten by bed bugs. I know I was not the only guest to be so affected. Management were outstandingly rude and unhelpful. They did not address the problem and instead of giving me partial or full refunds they accused me of causing the problem. Do not stay here. Stay away! Facilities were basic... more

Pros: Good location. Close to trams. 30 mins walk to city. Quiet, safe neighbourhood. Restaurants and cafes nearby. Apartment clean, bright and cheerful. Cons: Entrance and stairwell filthy with the ambience of a slum (in contrast to the apartment itself). The building exterior not much better. Long, narrow driveway, hazardous for vehicles. No matches for the gas stove nor washing... more

I stayed at 200 Toorak Road which was leasted by Aston Apartments of Powell Street. I have to say that I am glad I paid the additional money reading the other reviews! We had a 2 bedroom apartment which seemed new, freah, light and very safe and secure. The location was very convenient, just across from south Yarra Station and... more

We had stayed at Aston Apartments last year - post renovations (internal only). On that occasion it wasn't bad, though the bed was too low and too soft & you slid off if you tried to sit on it. Parking was awkward & the dishwasher wasn't even connected. This time, we stayed in a different apartment in a different block... more

This was the rankest place i have ever stayed in! We asked for a non-smoking room and when we arrived at the room we were nearly blown away by the smoke, the beds were sunk in, curtains were falling down. So we told them that we had booked a non-smoking room and they relocated us to another room. This room... more

I stayed at this venue 5 years ago and it was reasonable. What a difference 5 years make, in that time I don't think ANYTHING has been changed or upgraded. Upon arrival, kettle not working, no tea cups or mugs, (reception did bring a new kettle and gave me 2 tea cups when I approached them). The heater was not... more

I had read these reviews before i booked a room at Aston, but im use to ruffing it and have stayed in some destitute accomodation through-out asia. However i can honestly say this is the worst accomodation and service i have ever had. Firstly the room i had on Punt road was DIRTY, MOULDY and SMELLY and the blinds were... more

We walked in and walked out again. They did give full refund but took 3 days to hit my Cr. account (not properties fault but banks). Not clean, curtains falling from rail, under beds dusty and lollies etc still there ie not vacuumed. Also mouldy bathroom and looked liked floor had not been swept. We were a family of 5... more

We were 4 family members visiting Melbourne for a family event. Had read reviews on Trip Advisor and didn't expect much for $128/night. Well, we didn't get much! Location is great, nice leafy South Yarra street - excellent Italian restaurant straight down on Toorak Road. If you want cheap accommodation and no more than a roof over your head -... more

I stayed in a studio apartment, which was nice and sunny, clean and had everything I needed. It is handy to town (on the tram) and in walking distance to Chapel St which has awesome shopping. This is a great priced, easy option for accommodation. Staff were friendly too. Not for someone that cares about staying somewhere flash though, I... more
