Melros Beach Tours and Activities

I know the desired "vibe" is that of a cozy, quaint accommodation, but I would rather have less cozy and more comfort and convenience. There's no mini fridge, and our room had only one chair. There was only a bar along the wall to hang clothes. The bathroom was quite large. I'd rather have less bathroom and more room. An upgrade was suggested at check-in for a room with a balcony, but as I saw from the outside, the balconies were tiny and IMO not worth the extra $. I have stayed in many hotels and motels, and I have never been charged for a continental breakfast. For $20+, the charge seemed way out of line - especially for such a limited selection. Having said all that, I really liked the sitting/lounge area. The access to a variety of complimentary beverages was much appreciated. The staff were very pleasant, and the location is very convenient for transportation and eats. It's a short walk to the CBD. As much as it seems I have complained, we did enjoy our stay. Still though, it wouldn't take much to make it an exceptional hotel. Make the rooms more accommodating - add a chair. Add a minifridge. Put in an armoire. Provide a complimentary continental breakfast. Really... those are little things that would make a big difference.

Immaculately presented but no where for baggage in the room and WHO designed the lighting? Terrible. Dim lights everywhere. Bathroom hopeless as no brighter lights for shaving, make up. On the plus side top floor bar 1st class. No response to request for housekeeping. Slightly disappointed.

First of all, the location was excellent. Conveniently located between Kings Park and the Elizabeth Quay and CBD. We walked pretty much everywhere and only used our car a few days. Unfortunately, the Wifi was terrible, painfully slow and intermittant. My wife and I depend on internet access for our jobs, so we ended up having to hot spot our phones and use cellular data instead. Improving Wifi should be a top priority for the property managers. Other than that, the one bedroom apartment was simple, but clean. The bed was comfortable, and the only other issue was the fan above the stove didn't work. Once they improve the Wifi, it will be hard to beat this location.
