Melrose Apartments

Good location and very good service from the property manager, will stay again

Everything about this accomodation was fantastic. Location had on street free parking, was secure, immaculately clean. Reception very helpful. Very good value for money. Will be back.

I was really impressed by how the manager helped us with anything. They even allowed us to have an early check in at 0700 am. The room is "value for money", comfortable, near tram stop, asian grocery, woolworths, melbourne zoo and near a mosque. Overall, worth the money.

My partner and I were initially only planning to stay here for the first part of our trip to Melbourne, but ended up staying the whole month. The proprietor (Lisa) and her team were very attentive to our needs and were easy to get ahold of if you needed anything. The in building laundry was great. Also loved the location. It was a short train tram ride into the CBD. Plenty of street parking in the area as well. Would definitely stay again!

These comfortable, clean and affordable apartments are just a 10 minute tram ride from Melbourne. Lisa the manager is so helpful and welcoming and adds that personal touch to your visit. The supermarket is just a short walk away along with a coffee house and a couple of bars. We travelled over from South Wales and Melbourne was the third part of our visit after the Blue Mountains and Sydney. We just loved the place. These apartments were just what we needed.

Starting with amenities. There are none. Self contained kitchenettes, Not full sized but everything or almost everything is available. It certainly doesn’t fit the description of an apartment. Now everything is small and closed in especially the balcony. Tiny. Don’t ask about parking. There is none unless you want to pay for your compact vehicle to go into the rumpus room of the building. Now the biggest faux pas is the fact that the Victorian State housing blocks are right opposite the Melrose. This is great if you have selected the not free parking and you wish to make an insurance claim. The owner has issues with the locals. The proprietor has many issues with the truth. It has water views for certain if you are in the kitchen or bathroom. If you have caught on by now you should understand there are many misleading statements which simply are not true. Count how many you can find. Yup heaps. Now stay elsewhere if you value peace of mind. Oh and truth in advertising. Watching TV is a guaranteed way of getting a bad back. Beds are far from comfy.

We stayed 5 nights at Melrose during our Australia trip. It was a real pleasure staying here. Great hospitality, clean and well equipped rooms and close to public transport. Within 15 minutes you’re in the city center. There is no doubt where we will stay when visiting Melbourne again.
