Humberto, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good choice with a decent basic hotel in Melbourne
Fantastic location if you need to stay in the hotel, walking distance to public transportation and restaurants just outside your hotel. It is located in the "elegant" section of China town near the Parliament. Spacious room, adequate amenities, with the right price, it is a very good choice rather than pay much more in the old hotels.

City Limits is a great city fringe hotel option! It has been in the same location for many years, has fantastic friendly staff and a comfortable feel. Slightly less well appointed than the big hotels, but also less expensive!

1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

In a position on the edge of the vibrant China town area very convenient for the free city centre tram network and adjacent to many great dining options. A lovely small apartment hotel with friendly personal service. The rooms are well thought out with a kitchen and dining area and everything you need to self cater if you wish. Great value compared with larger hotels in the crowded central tourist areas. Everything is accessible for tourists on foot or using the trams.
David, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Brilliant and cheap
The front desk staff, namely Daniel, were so kind and accommodating. He went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. It's a very basic hotel but for the cost and location, I cannot complain. Would definitely book again for a brilliant, cheap option in the heart of the city.
