This place is in a very accessible place in Melbourne. I checked in just as kitchen was about to close, staff very friendly made atmosphere feel welcoming. They made sure I got a very delicious meal and delivered to room as I had, a big drive getting there. Room already had Aircon going and it’s was a warm evening so to walk in to an already cooled down room was heaven. I stayed two nights was very affordable and convenient for me.
