Pros:

Tram stop right out the front of the hotel made it easy to get to the city. Only a short walk to the South Melbourne Markets. Room was clean and comfortable and perfect for our needs

Pros:

The hotel was really nice and in a quiet location close enough to the city fir convenience but far enough away to be quiet. The rooms were really nice and they communicated really well when I told them I would be arriving late.
