Room had a couple of small things requiring attention. In bathroom, double power point has a switch that has a broken spring, you cannot tell if it is off or on. And the shower doors, the clear one has run off it's track causing the door to jam when opening or closing. Otherwise a great stay. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 28 Dec 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities My husband was greeted by a women who smelt of smoke.... the lock on the door was a passage lock, the shower tray had mould spots, the tea cup had a dry ring fo coffee on the lip and the saucer and we have both come away with bites in our bodies from sleeping I the bed.... the layout of units to cars paces did not help with the exiting of adjoining unit around 4am as they packed up and yelled at each other in their room, as they walked past our room and packed their car (including multiples doors being slammed). All in all the location was fabulous and if the facility could be relayed out and cleaned it would attract a higher price tag. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Dec 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Pan Pacific Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Pan-Pacific-Melbourne.h2432787.Hotel-Information) > > [Great Southern Hotel Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Great-Southern-Hotel-Melbourne.h27851.Hotel-Information) > > [Carlton Lygon Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Carlton-Lygon-Lodge.h4790050.Hotel-Information) > > [Newell Restaurant & Rooms](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sherborne-Hotels-Newell-Restaurant-Rooms.h37817894.Hotel-Information) > > [Comfort Apartments Royal Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Royal-Gardens.h425401.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza London Heathrow T4 by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-London-Heathrow-T4.h22334825.Hotel-Information) > > [Deja Resort All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Montego-Bay-Hotels-Deja-Resort-All-Inclusive.h554709.Hotel-Information) > > [Ovolo South Yarra](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Ovolo-South-Yarra.h63305062.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Mexico](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Mexico.d117.Hotel-Destinations) > > [Hotels in Castle Douglas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Castle-Douglas-Hotels.d182747.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Mercure Melbourne Southbank](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Mercure-Melbourne-Southbank.h898381.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Karamboa - Adults Only - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Boa-Vista-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Karamboa-All-Inclusive.h4813332.Hotel-Information) > > [The Waverley International Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-The-Waverley-International-Hotel.h3504259.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Melbourne Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Melbourne-Airport.h12401.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson on Flagstaff Gardens Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Radisson-On-Flagstaff-Gardens-Melbourne.h82772.Hotel-Information) > > [Space Hotel - Hostel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Space-Hotel-Hostel.h2100092.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-Melbourne.h23775.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Melbourne by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Melbourne.h845390.Hotel-Information) > > [Atlantis Hotel, Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Atlantis-Hotel.h864494.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge Hotel Melbourne Docklands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Travelodge-Hotel-Melbourne-Docklands.h3033860.Hotel-Information) > > [The Hartwood Hall Hotel by Greene King Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chorley-Hotels-The-Hartwood-Hall-Hotel-By-Greene-King-Inns.h11899264.Hotel-Information) > > [Quincy Hotel Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Quincy-Hotel-Melbourne.h57242156.Hotel-Information) > > [The Elk & Avenue Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Banff-Hotels-The-Elk-Avenue-Hotel.h189909.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Sydney (SYD) to Melbourne (MEL)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/syd/mel/sydney-to-melbourne) ### Packages > [JSCA International Stadium Complex](https://www.expedia.co.uk/JSCA-International-Stadium-Complex-Ranchi.d553248621592206734.Attraction)
