Could so easily be cleaned - no kettle in the kitchen - window locks didn't work - a bit unsettling with a ground floor apartment, didn't feel that safe - bed needs an upgrade, sinks in the middle pretty bad - garden beds out the front have been left abandoned - it could be made really nice but hasn't been Overall the property \*could\* have been great, but some things have obviously been let go and not cared about. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jan 2020 ### 4/10 Poor #### Lenz Nov 25, 2019 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Booked this as the reviews weren't too bad. It didn't have a lift so we had to carry our luggage up the stairs. Note rooms 7-10 are on the top floor. We expected the place to be a little run down but found out it was mainly from the lack of maintenance. Cutlery and crockery a mish-mash - no two forks and spoons or drink-ware were alike. Pluses: Good location, room layout, shower and electricals (except TV and ventilation fans) and wifi work well, kitchen trash cleared almost daily. Friendly staff at check in and housekeeping. Minuses: A little stale smelling as a first impression. Base of toilet had urine stains, shower muck on grouting, toilet trash wasn't cleared for the week, TV had 'no signal' (thank goodness for youtube), big spiders (one crawled on me at night and accidentally squashed it when flicking it with my leg, next day killed another one with a body about 8mm long), living room roller blind mechanism free-wheels allowing the blind to crash down onto the sill if not controlled, doesn't stop half way; only fully open or fully closed. No privacy curtains, toilet ventilation fan roars like an engine, kitchen ventilation fan 'chirps' as it struggles to turn. Lastly security may be of concern as the main stairwell is dark for the first few hours of the night, the main door and room door are run by codes and the chain lock is able to come off even when it is fully slid into place (it's damaged and allows entry with just a little force). Overall just short of an OK. ##### Lenz Stayed 6 nights in Nov 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jun 16, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities shower drain is blocked , exhaust fan above shower not working, toilet set is loose ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jun 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ross Apr 18, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Ross Stayed 8 nights in Apr 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Donna Jan 20, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Happy camper Room was basic but suited our needs we were out all day.

This was only if you were a crow. Reality was 5.3 km away by road or a 2.5 hour walk. Reception was in another building. Had to pay extra for parking which was unexpected. There was no lift and stairs were dirty. It looked ok on first look at apartment but cleanliness was only surface deep. Mould in shower and on ceiling. Removed rubbish bag and bin was disgusting. Took rubbish to bin and found the outside bin area was full of cigarette butts, rubbish and broken glass. Had not been cleaned in months. Cooking utensils all needed replacing, very old and well used. Dining table and chairs old and rocked. No room to put your bags(not good if you have a bad back) and tv in a very low position. ##### Chris Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Oct 24, 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Great location. But The place is run down now, need lot of maintainance and cleaning. I stayed here few month ago, the light in corridor was out and I told them about it. I'm here this time, the same light is still out. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shermin Mar 12, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Best Good service ##### Shermin Stayed 1 night in Mar 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Feb 19, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort No check in reception in house and have to do it at Askron apartment nearby. Sofa need to change. Very inconvenient to have to come down from car everytime to key in code to open the auto gate. Should lower down the flat rate carpark fee per day for the guest staying in. Overall good place to stay. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 10 nights in Feb 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Feb 16, 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Unclean room As a house keeping supervisor for a hotel i have certain but not unreasonable expectations. However nothing prepared me for the shock of walking in to my assigned room to find it had not been cleaned at all! The bathroom mirror was filthy, the sink had hair in it, the shower had not been wiped down or cleaned, the toilet had stains in it from the previous occupant. The kitchenette had food crumbs and stains all over the bench and there was food waste left in the sink. Then there was the hair all over the room. The only clean thing in the room was the linen on the bed and the towels. On calling reception i received an apology but was asked if i was ok to stay in the room as there was nothing that could be done at that time (6.30pm), so i stayed. Speaking to reception the following day, again i receive an apology but no real suggestion of recompense of any sort, only the promise of a great discount rate for my next stay, as if that might happen. Extremely disappointed, as no matter how much you pay for your room it should at least be clean and without the presence of the previous occupant. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Feb 12, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Overall nice place to stay at except very inconvenient when have to go out from the car to open the autogate. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jan 2, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### was a great stay lots of information & great staff was a great stay lot of information given to us and easy to get to park was a bit of a issue but was good to be able to park in the safely of behind gates after asking. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Dec 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Marlene, Mornington Dec 30, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great location A great location with everything you need, very helpful and organised staff jut a phone call or text away. Staying in the heart of Carlton with everything you need a short walk away or several tram trip options around the corner. Plenty of space, a kitchenette and onsite undercover parking with a fast cold air conditioner as needed for a hot few days. ##### Marlene Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Melanie Oct 24, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Confusing check in & late check out process The check in process was very confusing-there is no reception at the Drummond, as I found out after I was dropped off there with all my luggage. I had to walk to the sister apartments, The Alston, on Elgin street, where check in was done. I had missed this, as it was part of fine print under important information. No street address is written for the Alston though, but is left at the entrance to the Drummond.I was offered the choice to remain there, which I did, as a room was available. I'm not sure that the swap was value for money by comparing the two retrospectively. I asked for a free upgrade to late checkout at 12. The coded door, meant that the cleaning service arrived promptly at 9am, loudly banging on door, then entering apartment to clean. After a busy week, I would have appreciated more privacy & a sleep in. Reception said, the cleaner was told I was checking out late. Although clean, the room was small and some street noise filters through. For the high price paid, I would definitely book elsewhere next time. ##### Melanie Stayed 1 night in Oct 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Oct 13, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Well appointed.
