See you next year for Life’s a Beach Festival!!!!
Pros:

The location was perfect for our Festival visit. Room was comfy and clean.

Cons:

I wish there was a microwave in the room and the cafe did simpler breakfasts as my daughter has a restricted diet due to medical reasons.

Good location, easy access to parking.
Pros:

Location, easy access to many restaurants, grocery stores and public transport. Staff were friendly and accommodating.

Cons:

Doona (covered with clean sheets) was dirty. Room in general was old, a little dusty. Could hear music through closed windows, but stopped at an appropriate time. Cost was obviously very inflated for F1, so can’t judge property based on value.

Friendly staff, Good location, close to beach, eating places and concert venue, but just a bit expensive for St Kilda.
Pros:

Friendly, efficient staff
Great location for us to to our concert.
Nice cafe for breakfast
Clean room

Cons:

Very small room , not reflected in booking site photos.
In terms of value for money, it was a very expensive at 275 for one night in a very small room. We would look for somewhere more reasonably priced if we visit the area again.
