Speechless. This is the first time I have encountered a hotel/homestay without a front desk. You need to check in by yourself and contact them in advance. I called them twice in a row but they refused to answer. They said I needed to send a text message. After sending the text message, they gave me the door code for check-in. I booked an independent single room. I continued to send text messages to ask which room it was, but they didn't reply. It was not until the evening that the staff returned to the second floor and knocked on the door before they led me to the room. In short, it was very troublesome and inefficient. They said it was cold and needed a quilt, but they only added a thin blanket. It was still a bit cold at night, so I went to another room to find a quilt for myself. Although it was a bit dirty, at least I had to keep warm. As a result, they found out the next day and scolded me, saying that I shouldn't take the quilt without permission. The main reason was that I was embarrassed to disturb them at night. In short, they couldn't understand each other and the service attitude was extremely poor! Everyone try to avoid pits!

This is a very basic place, so don’t expect much and bring a padlock for your gear as this is an unsafe area. I had a problem with my pod breaking and I was injured and the staff were not interested in putting things right. If you book here don’t expect much for your money!

Noone in place on arrival, customer let me in. Mgr was drunk and openly drinking a tin of spirits with a mixer the next morning, He was rude and bossy even though I cleaned up after myself and caused zero trouble. I booked 8 nights 7 online and 1 extra in person. When my pod floor broke in the night on the 3rd day he didn't care and neither did the owner (Mr Frank Chan), I got a cancellation refund of $150 from Wotif after 2 hours online help. The Mgr gave me 50% of my cash payment even though I cancelled 4 nights ahead. What a rip-off! Clients are rough and ready but I could cope with that- the attitude of the Manager and owner was disgusting, really appalled by my experience here. Go somewhere else if you are not desperate!

Liked friendly and welcoming staff, cleanliness, free coffee tea and bread. Comfortable bed and communal areas. Only think to be improved is that I wasnt in receipt of the code to get in when I arrived. I didnt have a sim card so couldnt phone. I went away and emailed Frank to get it and then went back. Ideally an automatic email and text giving these details, before check out time would have been good. Overall this is my favourite accommodation place in Melbourne.

My windows were missing 1 half of the curtain which meant you had a natural alarm clock regardless how tired you are, but hey, cheap

This is a budget stay. They send you an email after booking which had me giggling that really pushed it home. They basically say you don’t pay for extra services so don’t expect them. For me, I got exactly what I paid for. I was excited to try out the capsule pod for a night and it was maybe 15mins from where I’d been earlier. Very convenient. The pods were a bit creaky but overall clean and had all the necessary bits for charging electronics. It gave me a Star Wars/Star Trek vibe and it was fun staying somewhere that looks so much like the places in Japan that I haven’t been able to go. The shower was adequate, got the job done. Decent shared kitchen. From my single night everyone seemed to be aware of each other and were as quiet as they could be. These aren’t soundproof spaces but I didn’t find it a problem. I have chronic pain and health conditions and I was in an upper capsule. I found the little ladder steps to be the easiest I’ve ever used. Very solid, easy to navigate and no foot pain from tiny rungs.

One towel, stained and not even folded, no bed lamps, bed had no frame or bed head, just a matress and base plonked on the floor.no soap in bathroom, no amenities. For very little extra cost this room could have been so much better. Spa out odd order and dirty.
