We stayed while we were visiting Melbourne for football games at MCG. Its a convenient lication with good facilities both within the unit/hotel and surrounding location. Especially having 3 active boys with the park so close by for them to burn off energy.

Puntill Melb Visit
Family visit to Melb. Room was noisy as above the busy street level and had a pugnant smell generated from the downstairs restaurant.
If I stayed there again I would seek a room further away from the street and restaurant. Great central location however.

Massive rooms, very clean, convenient area near airport, about 25 dollars in an Uber, thirty five minutes by tram from city centre. Late arrival after reception closed worked well but instructions could have been clearer. Otherwise all very good.

Stayed in a 1bedroom interconnected studio for a family of 4. This gave us a full-size kitchen, 2 bathrooms, in room laundry. Fantastic. Only fault was old tv’s that didn’t have Apps installed/capability so couldn’t watch a movie on demand.
