Guest Reviews

• Nikhil Sasi Kumar (8/5): -
• Alethea Kamaina (10/5): The best trip I made - The view was excellent Nothing
• Kimberley (7/5): - Location and layout were perfect for our needs. There was a mix up with the key collection process which took a while to resolve and did add unnecessary stress. Apartment wasn't as clean as we would expect.
• Ron (7/5): -
• Keelan (10/5): Very good -

• Deborah (5/5): Overall, while we did enjoy the apartment's cleanliness and the fantastic location, we feel that addressing these is - Accommodation Review – ReadySet Apartments Address: 62/538 Little Lonsdale Street, Melbourne We recently stayed at ReadySet Apartments and were pleased with the property’s location, which was perfect for our trip. The apartment itself was clean, tidy, and quiet. The building was easily accessible. However, there were a few areas that could benefit from improvement. Firstly, accessing the key was challenging as the key pickup was located at a separate location from the accommodation itself. The instructions provided for entering the building were somewhat unclear, which led to some confusion upon arrival. When it came to the car parking roller door remote, this was already in the apartment and not provided with the apartment key. This meant there was no opportunity to park outside the building to retrieve it and driving around the block on countless occasions was time consuming and frustrating until a car park was available. This made accessing the parking area difficult and a huge inconvenience. We made an assumption to park on level 5 as there was no instruction in which floor to park on, only to later find a note on the car informing us that we had parked on the wrong floor. A clearer parking guide or instructions would have been very helpful as we were on level 6 and the car park doesn’t go to level 6. We also noticed a distinctive food aroma in the apartment, and corresponding foyer, which we weren’t sure whether came from the restaurant below or another part of the building. Whilst somewhat overwhelming, it was noticeable during our stay and made sure we kept the door to the apartments balcony open whilst we were there. In terms of accessibility, we had some difficulty with the lift as well. We were staying on level 6 but couldn’t access the car park directly from that floor, which made moving luggage somewhat inconvenient. The lift only seemed to operate between the ground floor and level 6, for the key fob so accessing other floors required using stairs. I.e level 5 for the car park. Finally, we experienced some issues with the Wi-Fi. We were unable to connect our phones, and the internet connection on the TV was unstable, frequently freezing or dropping out. The TV also appeared to lack an aerial, limiting viewing options.
• Alexia (7/5): -
• Aaron (9/5): -
• Angela Mae (8/5): - Close to everything.. good ambience Nothing
• Rob (4/5): -
• Jodie (7/5): Place was comfortable I did a good clean - Close to everything Nothing
• piyawat (10/5): - Nice place, clean, spacious, convenient to travel, the room owner provides great assistance
• Katelyn (8/5): - We liked that it had a bath and open living space. No aircon and there was no clear instructions on what level the apartment was on. We had to use the sofa in the lounge for a bed and it was really hard and uncomfortable. It’s not a pull out couch with a sofa mattress, it’s just the hard couch base.
• Rikki (6/5): - Prime location, spacious apartment, mostly clean (the balcony hadn’t been cleaned & there were a ton of cigarette butts, empty packets & empty cans that seemed to have been there for sometime). The tv did not work (quite annoying of an evening when you have children), however overall we were happy with our stay.
• Trinady (1/5): Bad -
• Paula (1/5): Bad - DON'T DO IT!!!! APARTMENT WAS DISGUSTING!!! This booking was a nightmare from start to finish. Room rate on app was $430 incl taxes and charges but we were charged an additional cleaning fee of $167 on top of that. I have tried to query multiple times how booking.com can do this but get nowhere. I was going to cancel but finding accommodation for 5 isn't easy in CBD so we kept it. Arrived to an apartment that clearly had not been cleaned for several weeks, possibly months. The only thing the cleaners did was beds and put a bin liner in the bin. Thank god we weren't cooking, cooktop dirty and greasy, microwave putrid, air fryer had baked on smelly food inside, splatters on front of cupboards, inside of fridge dirty. I cleaned fridge before even putting drinks inside, wiped down cupboards and bench tops. Bathroom was disgusting, hair, dirty floor, dirty shower.. I cleaned shower base but we still wore thongs in shower. Bath had not been touched for a long time, would hate to arrive with young kids who needed a bath. Floor was dirty and sticky. Broken blinds and dryer in cupboard not mounted on wall, just sitting on top of trough. I have taken lots of photos and intend to try and lodge a complaint. Google the property and read all the similar reviews and stay well away!! Booking.com should be embarrassed to list this prooerty and Readyset apartments should be embarrassed by the state of the accommodation. When I messaged them I got an apology and was told cleaner would come back. Not a chance in hell they were coming back, didn't care the first time, not going to care enough to come back! Cleaning fee is a joke!!
• Chloe (4/5): Disappointing - Didn’t get told what floor we were on. Tried calling multiple times and no answer. No A/C and the room was like a sauna
• Zach (6/5): Pleasant - good location they key didn’t work
• Kylee (8/5): Very good - Location and price Key pick up
• Gurvinder (8/5): - We found the property to be in a great central location. Walking distance from the skybus stop, grocery store and train station. The property is roomy and has enough space for 6 people comfortably. The only downside is that it needs some TLC.
• John (4/5): - Location was a good point, however the cleanliness - or lack of it was very very dissapointing. Right off , the unit was not cleaned prior to us getting there - benches not wiped down, beds just pulled up ( with hair all through them when blankets pulled back) bathroom had not been touched, even the previous tennants keys for the room were still on the table.After trying to contact complex manager went back to where we got the keys from( Typical COVID thing - no one at front desk to greet you or see to your items, all managed remotely) and they managed to get hold of them and they sent a cleaner to " clean" the place. We were told they would be there at 16:30 that day but did not arrive till the next day to clean - so we did not appreciate having to sleep in a bed that someone else had slept in previously .When they did come to clean, they left fresh towels and sheets ( we had to make bed) and swept the main floors areas and left. No bin liners, no benches wiped down, bathroom not cleaned ( soap scum etc still on glass door). Hygenically this was very poor. The windows have not had the runners cleaned for quite some time as the amount of mould/grime/dirt in them was quite astounding, and BLACK. Photos can be supplied upon request of all areas !!! Very disappointing when you pay hard earned money and expect at least a resonable service but don't even get that. A somewhat sour note to our holiday in Melbourne.
• Land (10/5): Exceptional - Loved how bright, spacious, clean it was and loved the layout. One curtain didn't want to go up or down but otherwise loved the apartment.
• Luke (10/5): - Great location for a good price. Very good
• ayshea (8/5): - This property was in a great location. Property was clean and spacious and really good value for money but some fixtures in the apartment could do with being updated i.e the shower head falls down.
• Joessa (1/5): Bad - Not a good place to stay Key not working properly staff can't help contact number all busy
• Michaelaj25 (5/5): WOULD STAY AGAIN BUT WOULD LOOK ELSEWHERE FIRST. - THE LOCATION OF THE PROPERTY WAS GOOD. IT WAS SECURE. CHECKOUT WAS EASY. THE BUILDING WAS EASY TO FIND. THE PRICE WASN'T TOO BAD CONSIDERING THE ROOM WE GOT, THE VIEW AND THE AMENITIES. THE SHOWER HEAD KEPT FALLING DOWN. THE DOOR WOULDN'T UNLOCK WITH THE KEY WE WERE PROVIDED. THE KEY COLLECTION WASN'T THE BEST. THERE WAS NO TOILET CLEANER, TOILET BRUSH OR AIR FRESHENER.
• Gypsy (5/5): Passable - the location few things were broken shower head was being held up by a coat hanger stains on pillows that were in the cupboard
• Jake (4/5): Disappointing -
• Derek (1/5): Bad -
