No, the balcony was definitely mot scenic, the view it offered was other warehouse roofs and frankly, made me a little uncomfortable. The stove in the roof was difficult to operate We never cooked. Staff, Luke was exceptionally nice. Helpful with things in the area.

Location is located right along the Route 59 Tram Line making it quite easy to travel to both Downtown Melbourne and the airport. It is also walking distance to convince stores and a shopping plaza.

Great place. Great area

Great rooms. Beds are a little bit stiff but comfortable. Not a huge fan of the two twins together being called a king bed, but that’s being nitpicky. The balcony is great and the showers are perfect. Very comfortable place I will definitely book again.
