Guest Reviews
- Scott (10/5): Spacious apartment in ideal location - We loved our stay here, it was much more spacious than the other options we looked at. The location was absolutely perfect, right in the heart of the city with lots of nice cafes and restaurants on Flinders Lane.
- Aaron (10/5): Fantastic place to spend time in Melbourne - The proximity to all the best places on Flinders Lane is unmatched
- Yuk Kiu Chloe (8/5): Great for exploring the city - Central location in a beautiful building, great food and cafes to explore nearby, walkable to places we needed to go to. We had a comfortable stay overall, and the room was clean and well-kept. The mattress and pillows were a bit softer than our personal preference, but that’s just a matter of taste. We also ended up buying our own shampoo and conditioner, as we prefer our usual products. Otherwise, we appreciated the accommodation and hospitality!
- Kathy (8/5): Central location with access all our needs -
- Karin (9/5): We had a very pleasant 3 day stay - It was quite and comfortable, the best is its location , in the middle of all Melbourne’s lanes
- Rosaria Sarina (7/5): Excellent and convenient location - Excellent location. Double bed mattress and quilt cover could be upgraded. My husband kept rolling into the middle of the bed and the quilt cover was stained/discolored. The apartment did not look like the photos shown on web site but was ok.
- Marcus (9/5): -
- Catherine (8/5): Perfect apartment for a couple looking to explore Melbourne by foot. - The apartment was in the best possible location for exploring Melbourne by foot. Bonus was the proximity to the location of the Australian open, running paths along the river, and all the walking tour highlights. Extremely clean, quiet and safe building. Make sure before you book that you understand that this is a tiny apartment, with very little natural light. It is a perfect place for those planning on being out and about all day, but not a place to really lounge or hangout. Although there are amazing coffee shops nearby, there is no coffee machine in the apartment
- Gregshaz (9/5): Marvellous Melbourne digs. - Super location. Restaurants and wine bars at your doorstep. Facilities great. Well appointed apartment. Great host. For central location it is quiet overlooking the lane. Not applicable. There was nothing more we needed.
- White (8/5): -
- MOE (8/5): - 便利な場所にあった。部屋が清潔でインテリアのセンスが良かった。 暖房の効きが少し悪い。エレベーターが故障した。
- Debbi (10/5): Excellent. Will be back next time in Melbourne. - Apartment was in excellent location. Very clean. Had everything we needed, tea and coffee, close to supermarkets, spacious and comfortable, quiet and very secure. Easy key pick-up and good communication. Great spots to eat literally outside the door. Look forward to returning. Thank you. Nothing
- Jade (10/5): Excellent location, great room and building, and our host was great with clarity and communication, and was incredibly h - Not only was the property stunning, but was in an excellent location that was convenient, fun and exciting!
- Michelle (10/5): A cozy, well-equipped retreat in the heart of Melbourne—everything you need for a relaxing, city stay. - We had a fabulous stay! The apartment was so comfy and cozy—truly a little home away from home. The location in Melbourne was unbeatable, close to the trams, restaurants, shops and theatres; we couldn’t have asked for more. It had everything we needed, including a fully functional kitchen, washing machine, and dryer, which made our stay even more convenient. Despite being in the heart of the city, the apartment was surprisingly quiet and peaceful. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in town!
- Jeslyn (10/5): -
- Lily (10/5): Great apartment, great location. - The apartment was beautiful and in a fantastic location! It was very clean and welcoming, we had an excellent stay. If i had to find one thing I didn't love, it was the wifi - it dropped out a couple of times but always came back quite quickly.
- Kristie (8/5): A lovely place to stay for a short break. - The location of this property is perfect- right near the Degraves cafe strip and Flinders Station. A bit of noise in the second bedroom from the water pipes.
- Krishnita (10/5): Had an amazing one week stay . Will definitely book again. - The property is close to everything especially food, shopping and train station. Nothing to dislike
- Guest (9/5): We booked more than six months in advance and the accommodation was really quite brilliant. - We really loved the location and ease to reach public transport. I used the train every day to reach Cheltenham and Royal Melbourne Golf Club for the Australian Open. We also headed out to Brighton on the Sandringham line on Saturday night to eat out with friends. Although I collected two train timetables from Flinders Street, they weren't required. We discovered in Melbourne that if you reach your platform and the train moves out before you can board, just wait five minutes for the next one to arrive. The apartment was extremely clean and very well equipped. The only downside was that the internet was almost ineffective. I tried it several times but didn't have any success. I had to hotspot from my phone. To be honest, an extra few dollars to provide a better experience would be an expense I was willing to pay.
- Adele (8/5): Great inner city accommodation Hope to stay again ! :) - Location , location, location more comfortable sofa to sleep on :)
- Kathy (9/5): Wonderful, We would stay here again. - Location is the absolute best, everything is right at your door including transport, bars, restaurants. The apartment was whisper quiet as well which was great especially given the location. I also liked having more than one pillow per person. Lots of amenities and facilities, was great to have a washing machine as well because we stayed longer than a week. Everything we could want really. Host was communicative and lovely as well which is always a great bonus. A throw blanket would have been nice while watching TV
- Rita (10/5): -
- Crowe (10/5): Ticked all the boxes - Everything Nothing
- Tania (8/5): -
- Gail (9/5): Chill-out and drink the best coffee in Melb! - Loved the location and the apartment was well set-up with a few bonus goodies such as oil, salt etc. I was a bit cold because I had just come from the sunny coast so I could have done with a bit more heating but everything else was comfortable, even has probably the best coffee shop in Melb just across the street from the front door! I needed a bit more heat than the air-con gave out!
- Sandy (8/5): Would recommend it for a well situated and well appointed stay - It was a great location, well appointed and spotlessly clean Very small
- Karin (10/5): We did so much over the 4 days was great - The location is amazing so close to everything we do in Melbourne
Amenities were great, kitchen well stocked with great inclusions. The unit had great security we felt quite safe Nothing
- Kelly (8/5): Absolutely wonderful location and a lovely old building with a nice unit to use as a base. - Location absolutely fantastic! Main bed super comfy. Host was really lovely. Restaurants and cafes right out the door were incredible. Host recommendations were spot on! Too much light in the bedroom during the night. Some might find it a bit too small for more than 2 people.
- Mat (10/5): -
- Frank (9/5): Would definitely like to stay here again, had the best time in the perfect location. - The location in Flinders Lane is simply amazing. Everything you need is just outside your front door, the best bars cafes and restaurants, major attractions, shopping and public transport. Your serenity as you enter the building is very calming compared to the activities all around you and the building feels safe once you’ve entered the front door. My host was absolutely the best ever, terrific communicator, she made me feel welcomed and I had no problem checking in or checking out. For a larger person the shower space is only just bid enough.
- 劉 (10/5): 我覺得很不錯 - 我是第一次住這種家庭式,給我的體驗非常溫馨
可以洗衣烘衣讓我覺得方便又安心
尤其是住的地方超級在市中心中間真的超棒
不過我是路痴,如果能有明確的google map地址的話可能對外地非英文為母語的民眾能更確切找到地方 房間沒有冷暖氣機,如果是夏天去住可能會非常的熱
- Alejo Sfriso (10/5): -
- Walter (10/5): - Neat apartment with good character and space for 4 adults. Perfect location with great restaurants on your doorstep and a short walk to anywhere
- Waralee (10/5): This place is very clean and tidy central of everything walk 2 mins to tram and train the host very fast response and he - Clean and tidy
- Reardon (9/5): Superb -
- Louise (8/5): Fantastic location, close to everything. - The location was fantastic and was within walking distance to many cafes, restaurants, shops amd transport. It also felt like a safe and secure location to stay. The unit was well stocked with tea, coffee machine and washing machine and dryer if required. It was also very quiet inside the unit.
- Christine (10/5): Really allowed us to have the most wonderful time doing the things we love & oh so convenient - Everything, greatest location, exceeded our expectations in every way. Well equipped. Supermarket, trams & trains, buses too all so close by. So many places to eat unbelievable 💞 There was nothing to dislike🫠
- Michelle (10/5): Excellent location, cosy, would stay again. - Excellent location, Comfortable and cosy. Great friendly easy to deal with owner.
- Emilie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Daniel (8/5): Very good - Major plusses was the location - awesome for Flinders Lane - and how quiet the room was at night. We both slept so well!
- Kerin (9/5): Great location. Spacious rooms. Good facilities. - Perfect location. Quiet at night, yet heaps of restaurant options within short walk. Best area of Melbourne to explore the old arcades and beautiful architecture. Peter was very helpful. Facilities were good, rooms spacious with old world charm and high ceilings. Apartment felt safe and private. Will stay again when next in Melbourne. That I failed to read the instructions Peter sent regarding how to access the keys and gain access to the building!!!! My fault.
- Teresa (8/5): Fantastic location, surprisingly quiet given it’s on busy Flinders Lane - Host was excellent and easy to contact. Great location, secure building and floor. Apartment was very clean although a little dated. The only suggestion I have is to supply a full size ironing board. Would definitely stay there again.
- Jennifer (1/5): Horrible. Please give my money back - Nothing. This place is revolting Tv did not work. Room stuffy and smelly. No fresh air. Doona stunk. Bed small and uncomfortable. Noisy building with thumping from above. Ceiling fan noisy. Television had no reception, internet, no reception.
- Garry (10/5): I had a wonderful stay in this apartment, the easy access and the perfect central location makes for a fantastic place t - Loved the location. Loved the double glazed windows and the serene quiet. And I loved the apartment feels like a home, with all the different things one needs to feel at home. It’s a beautiful apartment.
- Anne (7/5): Great location - The location of the apartment was excellent, close to transport and great restaurants. The apartment itself was comfortable but dated and not particularly clean. There were no coffee making facilities and yes there was excellent coffee to purchase just outside the apartment but that becomes expensive.
- Violet (8/5): Very good - Exceptional location in the most buzzing spot in the CBD, everything is on hand. Not much day light (facing into a narrow alley); very noisy aircon unit.
- Yasmin (8/5): Great place to stay. - 1) Very comfortable.
2) Location is superb.
3) Host was very friendly and helpful. Not much. Kitchen utensils could be upgraded, but is still usable.
- Cap1tan0 (9/5): Superb -
- Tarrin (10/5): Excellent location with everything you need - Excellent location, cafes right outside and easy walk to public transport. This apartment has everything you need for your stay. Host was very quick to reply to my enquiries. Will definitely stay here again.
- Maria (9/5): Superb -
- Richard (4/5): A little disappointed - The location was great so central with plenty of shops and restaurants. The location was excellent t, so close to everything. My main complaint was an extremely loud air conditioner, that I didn't turn on for the lady 2 night so I could sleep. There were wires hanging out of the ceiling fan, there was a bright light shining through the window. The blind did not block out the lights. The hand towel did the bathroom had stains and holes in it. I stayed in room 103.
- Travels (9/5): An opportunity to see Melbourne through the lens of a local. - The location is absolutely second to none. Right in the heart of Melbourne laneway cafe culture. The apartment was super clean and well laid out.
I can’t recommend this place highly enough. We arrived after quite a warm day and the apartment had no air conditioning, so it was an uncomfortable first night. . It did have fans however that work well. I spoke with the lovely owner and they were already planning to install air conditioning in the near future - which will make the place faultless in my opinion.
- Connie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Amanda (8/5): A lovely apartment (not hotel) in an amazing location - The location is unbeatable, the building is beautiful and secure, and the apartment is nice. The windows keep out the noise from the street so the apartment is surprisingly quiet given the busy location. It's an apartment, not a hotel, so there's no front desk to help with small problems. Our host was as helpful as he could be over the phone but it's not the same.
- Samuel (9/5): Excellent location - The location is at the center of the tourism area. Close to many restaurants, cafes, stores, supermarket and transport. The apartment is spacious with complete facilities.
- Marie (10/5): It really was a lovely apartment in a perfect location. It suited my needs very well. - Lovely apartment. Perfect location. No view.
- Anieta (9/5): Superb - The apartment was very well appointed and very comfortable. The location is brilliant, close to all of the central city areas we wanted to visit and very close to Brunetti’s, which is an added bonus.
- Maddi (10/5): Exceptional -
- Angela (10/5): Exceptional - Central to the city The apartment had everything we needed, and the soundproofing ensured we weren't disturbed. .
Peter, the owner, was very accommodating.
We hope to return.
Highly recommend. There is not much of a view, but that is city living.
- Jan (6/5): Pleasant - Some milk and a box of tissues needed
- Ameen (8/5): Very good -
- Keng (7/5): Could be better. - Great that we can cook in the apartment. Location was great too. No housekeeping (change of linen/towels etc) even though we stayed for 8 nights.
- Guy (7/5): Location was fantastic and made up for the shortcomings of the apartment being a bit too small for two people. - Location is great. Close to Flinders Station and the inner CBD. Easy to access everything. Entry in and out is very easy. Owner was very communicative. Photos on the Booking.com App are predominantly for a bigger apartment that we did not get access to. The apartment we received was much smaller and were the photos at the end of the reel. Felt it was misleading advertising. Looking back at the fine print it does say there are multiple apartments.
Room and bed smaller than expected, not much room for two suitcases, we had to stack them near the entrance.
The air conditioner listed is a small portable one you would have to install in the window yourself if it gets hot.
Would be very little room to use the air conditioner if you needed it.
The fridge rattles around on the floor boards and is noisy, should consider replacing it.
Hot Water System also a bit noisy.
Apartment was a bit dusty.
- Jason (10/5): Exceptional - Very good location and big open room design was nice Short tap in bathroom
- Karen (10/5): fabulous flinders lane apartments - everything, fabulous location. a bit nosy but that's not anyone's fault just the location being in the heart of the city concrete floor, that would be the only thing I'd complain about, some carpet would've been nice
- James (9/5): Superb -
- Cheong (9/5): Enjoyable stay and we could visit quite a number of attractions in a short stay. - Central location. convenient, clean and comfortable. None
- Keri (6/5): Good location - Location Tiny room
- Jonathan (9/5): Superb - Located centrally, close to shopping, cafes and attractions, the two bedroom apartment with two bathrooms are great for families on holiday.
- Jenifer (10/5): Unbelievable location and excellent host. Will definitely stay there again. :) -
- Gai (9/5): Superb -
- Mcdonald (10/5): Exceptional -
- Deb (10/5): Exceptional - A great stay and fantastic location! Bed was comfortable, we had everything we needed. It was all thought of! It would be great to have a full length mirror somewhere as we only had the bathroom mirror for this. Not a deal breaker obviously, just a suggestion!
- Rice-finlayson (8/5): Very good - Incredible location, right in the middle or the CBD with plenty of great resturants and bars close by, but the room is still super quiet. Lovely old apartment, but very well maintained room and facilities. This is not a hotel and is closer to an airbnb or serviced apartment of sorts. So if you were expecting reception and room service, this is not for you. But i rate the place highly and will definitely use again.
- W (10/5): Exceptional -
- Paula (10/5): It was a perfect stay. - Perfect location and super easy to communicate with the owners.
The unit is beautiful and so comfortable.
Two bathrooms was a godsend.
We will be back again for sure.
- Michelle (8/5): Had a great time. Warm and cosy - Close proximity to CBD restaurants cafes and public transport Unfortunately roadworks being done outside rested a t of noise at night
- Scott (8/5): Very good -
- Maria (8/5): Loved it & would come again for sure! - Great for a solo traveller, incredible bed, had the best sleep on it. Close to everything & spacious so you don’t feel confined to a matchbox just to be in the city. Would have liked an extra heater but made it work!
- Elizabeth (6/5): Pleasant - Very convenient location, easy to navigate the city and to get to Flinders Train Station. It was a comfortable stay and host Peter was helpful and very easily contacted Not all of the facilities could be used (e.g. putting the 'clean' pots on the hob resulted in them sticking)
- Jenni (10/5): Laneway loft with the lot - Location was amazing for enjoying Melb CBD. Despite proximity to trams and trains and human traffic, the apartment was quiet with double glazed windows for a great sleep. The windows could be opened for fresh air and the heaters were very efficient on chilly mornings.
Everything we needed, including a tea pot, was there and we were very comfortable. A coffee plunger would have been great, but no biggie with coffee all around.
- Prager (9/5): Superb - Fabulous location, beautiful building, super quiet, well equipped and a comfortable size I couldn't open the window, it smelled rather 'close' when I arrived and there was no-one to ask about anything - the manager emailed me from New York! Was lucky I had no problem and didn't lock myself out, because I was totally alone.
- Thompson (9/5): Superb - Location, comfortable bed and reduced city noise were our main criteria and certainly met. Good secure building. Journal Cafe across road was a great coffee. We did not use kitchen or washing machine but great to have available. Pick up of key instructions was a very easy process. Ceiling lighting could be brighter - needed to have lamps close to read.
- Samantha (8/5): Very good -
- Tanja (10/5): Exceptional -
- Erin (8/5): Very good - Location was excellent, minutes walk from Flinders Station & the main shopping/eating streets. Quiet room for being so central, cozy but workable.
Host called beforehand to confirm arrival time & how to collect keys - very easy! Cleanliness of the bathroom was a little lacking. Some spots near the toilet & under the sink that had dust/other people's hair which was a little disappointing.
A hairdryer and/or some extra bathroom storage might be a good addition for those looking at more extended stays!
- Jay (10/5): Could not fault the place. Perfect stay. - Good host, really nice property, it was immaculately clean, comfortable, safe, good location, nice and central. It had everything I needed and met my expectations. I would recommend..
- Michael (10/5): Everything is perfect. - Location is great. Has all the amenities we need. Everything is nice and clean ;)
- Zoe (10/5): Great apartment with an exceptional host. - The apartment was in a great location and had all the facilities you could possibly need within.
The host was also brilliant - we had a slight problem during our stay, and Joy went above and beyond to solve it.
- Sarah (8/5): Brilliant location and very comfortable! - Brilliant location!
- Kerr (3/5): Urine stench - Great location. It's basic, but everything we needed was there, we could wash our clothes after travelling for a week, which was great, it was also very quiet with double glazed windows.
It should have been a nice place to stay, but.. IT REEKED OF URINE.
We walked into the apartment after meeting the host and were hit with a stench of urine. I messaged the host, and he rang back, saying that he had smelt the same thing but thought it was coming from the hallway. It definitely wasn't.
I asked if there was an alternative, but didn't get anything other than a can of spray disinfectant which did nothing.
I decided not to bother pursuing the host, he didn't follow up with me after giving me the disinfectant - I didn't feel like he was going to do anything to help even if I did.
The listing says "limited parking available", I expected there would be a small carpark that I'd be able to sneak into. It actually meant "NO parking available", it cost me $36 per night to park at a carpark the next block up.
- Yuhui (9/5): Comfort and convenient - Good location. It’s very convenient to go around the city. The full kitchen and washing machine is helpful.
- Daniel (10/5): Excellent. Convience. CLose to public transport. - I liked the modern appliances, peter was very helpful and set up a portable air conditioner for me in my room. OMG the bed was so extremely comfortable, i had 7 peaceful beautiful nights of pure sleep. The TV was great, could plug in and use my nintendo switch and computer via hdmi cable :) Shower was awesome - great pressure and loved the fact it was so close to everything! I didn't get to explore much of flinders lane though, as i tended to do diferent stuff, but the localtion is great! I would definetly book again! :D
- Toni-anne (8/5): Excellent choice for an inner city weekend - Location
Amenities Mattress was uncomfortable
- Susan (8/5): Very good - Quiet, convenient location. I wish I could have opened the window at night. They both felt stuck as though they hadn’t been opened since my last visit!
- Anonymous (10/5): Charming little apartment for a wonderful holiday! - Wonderful central location, everything is walking distance! Was such a cute apartment for me n my partner for our little get away. No comments/complaints.
- Mandy (9/5): Superb - Location was excellent. Great apartment. Easy to contact host and excellent information on amenities and general area. Nothing
- Srivatsa (7/5): Good - Joy is a fantastic host. Made things very easy for us. Location is great. Apartment is good and well maintained for a very old building. Reasonably good facilities. Lacks a tumble dryer. Bathroom is too small. If you are with a kid, it’s not too comfortable.
- Hariprakash (10/5): Zero complaints, had a pleasant stay - Location, clean, facilities, quiet, value, staff, lots of restaurants nearby Nothing negative, All good.
- Carmen (10/5): Amazing location, great apartment in the heart of the best of what Melbourne can offer - The location, the apartment and it was quiet and private but so close to everything. N/A
