Good location free breakfast

Free breakfast isnt much but it gets the job done. Australia is expensive so a free breakfast comes in handy. The wifi is free but you are limited to 100mbs a day. Good to write emails and surf. Bathrooms were clean. Very close to train station into town. Trains run very frequently. Room was small but good. Only problem was there were some loud girls next door. They sounded like they were in my room.

Great value in a convenient location

What I really like about this guest house is it offers great value in an expensive city like Melbourne and meets all my basic travel needs such as decent breakfast, tea/coffee 24x7, free wi-fi, fridge/microwave/iron in public area. Both rooms and shared bathrooms are very clean. The guest house is only about 100m away from a train station and it is a short 10min trip to the city center. The only minor problem is in order to get free wi-fi, you need to go through a login process every time in which the password changes every 24h. Really minor given it is free wi-fi.

"safe, practical, budget hotel"

The hotel was close to a train station, fine shops and dining. It is located about a 40 min walk to the CBD. Breakfast is simple, cereal, toast, instant coffee, fruit, and juice. Staff was friendly. The hotel itself is old, but the rooms and bathrooms were clean and modern.

we stayed in Claremont Guest House

we stayed in Claremont Guest House for five days. The best things were the location and the free wifi. The Guest House is really close to the south yarra train station and tram stations. It is very convenient to go to most of the places. The staffs are nice and friendly. Everyday we received 100MB data and this is very good. Just the room was too small. Since the price is acceptable with good location, free breakfast and free wifi, I might consider stay here again when next time come to Melbourne

Could not fault the staff attitudes

Could not fault the staff attitudes and their successful efforts to keep up with necessary cleaning, and the fact that the hotel is only metres from the tube - just fantastic

I stayed in the appartments on

I stayed in the appartments on Arthue street. It was very quiet, and had good access to public transport. The appartment was clean and had all the essentials for a short stay. Bed very comfortable.
