8.2/10 Very Good! (292 reviews)
This is a great property for a stay in Melbourne! Extremely central location. Great food options nearby. Transport very close with southern cross station and a tram stop right out the front. Staff were very helpful. Allowed us to store our bags once we checked out. Apartment is clean and comfortable. All the amenities you need. Would highly recommend. Only downside (and this was not the fault of Aussie escape apartments) is that the lifts were a little frustrating. Only 1 out of 3 working at time for such a huge building was a little problematic. But Susan this would not at all stop me staying again in the future! Thanks
