If you're in Melbourne to do a bit of shopping, see the sights and have some fabulous food but don't want to pay through the nose for a hotel then this could be a great option for you. It's not fancy, the rooms are functional and there aren't any modcons like plasmas but the rooms are clean and it's in a fabulous location, right near the shopping precinct of Bridge Road and the restaurants and bars of Richmond. It's certainly not where you'd stay for a luxury weekend retreat but for a holiday where the attraction is the city not the accomodation, then this is an ideal choice. They even serve a delicious breakfast each morning so you're all ready for a big day of sightseeing! (Date of experience: Mar, 2009 )
