I stayed here last minute after my flight got cancelled. The gentleman on the front desk was very lovely and empathetic towards our reason for staying. Check in was quick and easy, the room had everything we needed including a comfortable bed. It is located close to the airport which allowed for us to catch an early flight out the next day. We also got offered welcome drinks which was a nice touch. I would gladly stay here again for quick and easy access to Melbourne airport.

You get what you pay for: a basic hotel room in an industrial area of Melbourne, with limited service, for a low price (so still rather good value for money). Not so happy with the gaming hub (betting is about the only addiction that is actively stimulated in Australian society). Close to the airport so good for that overnight stay before or after your flight.
