Guest Reviews
- Heather (10/5): Absolutely fantastic views with a friendly and informative host. - The location was central. The host was communicative throughout the stay. It was really beautiful with the views, especially at night. The rooms had everything I needed and it was really relaxing to return to after busy days. A Washiing machine.

- matt ronald (8/5): Great view in a brilliant location - Great location and city view. Comfortable bed and pleasant bathroom. Cooking facilities not to bad. The host is respsonsive and helpful For longer stay travelers (we stayed six nights) it would be nice to have a washing machine and dryer in the spaces set aside for them in the laundry closet, especially as there are no accessible laundry facilities in the building
- Courtney (10/5): -
- Ross (9/5): A perfect Place - Awesome Location, great view (especially at night) , quiet, comfortable, secure, and plenty of room. Great friendly and prompt communications with the owner, Ricky. Good value for money in Southbank. Nothing. We liked everything

- Michael (9/5): Great base do - Location, clean secure
- Vicky Westwood (9/5): - Ricki, the host is very responsive and helpful.
This place was a fantastic find. Perfect location for walking literally everywhere i needed to go. Within a 2k radius to all the things I had planned. Walk out the entrance and your right on southbank with restaurants, fast food, mini marts, casino, trams, trains and coffee right there. Perfect alleyway for drop off and pick with ubers and taxis. Great views at both night and day. Plenty of storage space in the huge wardrobes, excellent kitchen with all the extras like oil, salt, pepper, coffee and coffee machine. I had a blast here.
I read reviews about noise from the elevator... I have no idea what that was about as i heard nothing. The water pressure was amazing. Also the aircon being set and not changeable. I would have liked to have been able to turn the temp down from 22 degrees, which was perfect in the day but i like 18 degrees for sleeping. Im a flower and come from a cold new zealand climate
- Trent (9/5): Very nice place to stay in melbourne - The views, location , Cleanliness, overall experience was good There was no info on how to access the other floors. For example in the elevtor there was a option for a garden but the key didn't work. The dishwasher also didn't work and smelt like it haden't been used in sometime.

- Andrew (8/5): Great location, spacious condo very suitable for a couple to relax in, highly recommended - Great location, the apartment itself was spacious and suited the two of us, the bed was comfortable and aircon great. Needs a nest of tables so you can put your nibbles and drink on when you watch tv …..plus I would fix the tv to the wall rather than sit it on a tv stand.

I had difficulty with the TV internet connection for programming such as You Tube or Netflix. Would have to reset the TV/ modem daily to regain a connection. To his credit Rick was very responsive and contacted the provider when I reached out for help. But the problem persisted the entire stay.
Room is right next to the elevators. I could faintly hear them although it wasn’t distracting.

- Shenon (8/5): Very good - The location is great, and the personal touches were a nice surprise. If I had to pick an issue, it would be the hot water in the shower. We have very hot showers, and we found that we didn't need cold water in the shower. As a result, the pressure wasn't as high as it could have been. This was not a major issue, though. The shower was still fine, and better than a few change hotels I stay at.
