"I didn’t like that we waited 40 minutes for a simple breakfast of muesli and cereal. We arrived at 6.50 am and were served at 7.30am. This was concerning as we had medical appointments in Richmond."

10/10 Excellent
"A great place to stay, on the edge of the city, close to transport, cafes and the VIC Market. Rooms are always clean and tidy, the staff friendly and the price excellent. On site parking makes it easy for country travellers. Have stayed here many times over the years and it is always my first choice when booking a city stay or an early morning trip to the airport, which was the purpose of this visit. Just 19 minutes to the airport and easy as to access."
