Melbourne hotellit East Melbourne

Plussat: Currently been here for two months, couldn’t ask for a better hostel to stay at long term. More like a big houseshare, very homely, staff are lovely (shout out to Lexi and Lorena!). Would recommend to anyone that wants to stay here!

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: The stuff is super friendly and helpful! They care deeply about the place and its guests.

Plussat: A real home from home. Excellent, welcoming staff. If you are after a hostel that is friendly, clean, well run, and has a family feel- look no further. I booked for one week and ended up staying for a month. Family dinner was always a highlight of the week and a great time to get to know others in the hostel. There are also daily events that are run by the hostel too. It’s also an excellent choice if you’re looking for somewhere that’s a little quieter as you’re working. Thanks Matt and the LP crew for a brilliant stay.

Plussat: I've definitely enjoyed my stay at Landing Pads. What makes this hostel so great is the family feeling you get with the people that live there. Everybody is welcoming from day one and the staff make sure you are enjoying your stay the hostel. Special thanks to house captain Imke, a fellow Dutchie, for making me feel super welcome and organizing so many fun activities. The weekly activities in and out of the hostel, for example family dinner on Tuesdays, are really fun and there's different things to do every week. There's also a job seekers tutorial which is really helpful if you're looking for a job. Also the hostel is very clean!

Miinukset: The kitchen is quite small.

Plussat: Friendly staff, common spirit of accommodated backpackers, suggestions for free-time activities, assigned bags for personal food, required house rules, common area to hang out, cleaness. I wish I could find a hostel like this any place I go.

Plussat: It was a nice room with a lovely view and the staff were very helpful and friendly.

Miinukset: There was no access to food or meals in the hotel due to Covid-19 and the hotel wasn’t very close to other restaurants.

Plussat: Friendly staff great location

Miinukset: No tea and coffee, really should have tea and coffee even if it is a apartment and the heater wasn’t that great had to grab a blanket to keep warm

Plussat: Perfect location with friendly and helpful staff and clean room

Plussat: The bed was v comfortable, great location and good for a cheap night just to sleep in a comfy bed

Miinukset: It is very old school which is fine but wasn’t advertised to be that old style.. the shower is hard to squeeze one man in & the door to bathroom wasn’t able to shut.. just minor issues.

Plussat: walking distance to city, nice smell when you walked into hotel, friendly service at desk

Miinukset: Fridge froze the food that was put in it including milk

Plussat: I have stayed here previously and the hotel itself is in a great location walking distance to all cbd.

Miinukset: Requested late check when I made the book in 2months in advance. Then called a week before for confirmation but was told to check with staff on the day. Arrived to check in but as it looked like they were understaffed and was stuck in drive way for 30mins, Couldn't move forward or reverse out. Finally had to leave the car as was and go upstairs to see only 1 staff member was working at reception, same staff had to hurry down to start moving cars. Spoke to staff about late check and was told to either call reception or come back later when it would be quite. Called reception and spoke to the 4th staff member by now about late check out who said she will have to check and called me back but never did. I went down and spoke to 5th staff member who FINALLY said it was all okay yet I still got phone call in the morning asking when I will be checking out. Very poor service seeing that I had to continuously follow up and yet still get woken up by reception.

Plussat: It was close to my conference place. The staff were nice and the hotel looked good.

Miinukset: My friend stayed in a backpackers and there was free wi fi. I think for the price I paid there should be free wi fi. Also there was not a spare roll of toilet paper in the room and I had to contact the desk to bring one up.

Plussat: I felt welcomed as soon as i arrived, they were very helpful and professional, It looks very nice inside and out, in a great location.

Miinukset: none

Plussat: The location was fantastic as were the staff.

Miinukset: We found the parking availability limited and were a little uncomfortable with the small amount of space between the vehicles once parked

Plussat: Closeness to the city and the easy access to the major sporting centers in Melbourne. Also the easy access to public transport was a plus.

Miinukset: Nothing to comment

Plussat: Location close to MCG and Rod Laver Arena.

Miinukset: Room was shabby and cleaning was not adequate (used soap in shower recess). Staff were indifferent to customers needs.

Plussat: The courtesy,and friendliness of hotel staff. The comfortable bed and meal prices that were reasonable

Miinukset: the noise from the elevator at night and the amount of light coming from under the door to the passage when we were trying to sleep

Plussat: Clean, friendly, convenient to Rod Laver and city...and flexible shower hose! Kitchenette was handy too.

Miinukset: Price of mini-bar goods

Miinukset: the bed in room was classed as queen however it was 2 singles put together it was not comfortable at all in fact had a sleepless night and would not recommond to anyone

Plussat: Everything was really great and the staff were very helpful. The rooms were a little outdated but very well presented and value for money. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Miinukset: Trying to get a taxi to take us from the hotel was a nightmare.

Plussat: Cheap and bear clubs

Plussat: Location and serves purpose

Plussat: It’s a budget hotel and the money that they charge it’s good for their location it’s close to melbourne city and for me it’s 7 minutes walk to epworth Hosptal where my wife was admitted so if you looking to save money this hotel is good but if you want to spend more money than book somewhere else because that hotel for me is about 2 star it’s very old and run down their service is good they give you breakfast egg and bacon so you get what you pay for I was happy I would stay there again the price was right the other hotels close where double the price

Miinukset: Old and run down

Plussat: The location is perfect, right next to the city center. Tram, bus and train station near by.

Miinukset: Basic breakfast but not bad.

Plussat: The position is great. Parked the car left in the same spot for six days. Get up in the morning breakfast would be there. Walked to visit my wife in hospital and I was able to walk to other places of interest between hospital visits.

Miinukset: This is not an upmarket place a little run down. But for the price it was just great for me and what I expected.

Plussat: Close to tram and rail, but train noise was nearby. Off street parking but best used if leaving car and using public transport during stay. Good breakfast, although rather plain.

Plussat: The rooms were clean and the location was good. Gary was excellent. Amazing personalized attention.

Miinukset: Didnt like the Breakfast and the rude lady owner.

Plussat: Location and value for money

Miinukset: Lights in hallway on all night super bright lit up room

Plussat: The location was central to the Melbourne CBD and to local shops and public transport

Miinukset: The unit didn't look like what the website advertises

Plussat: We were very happy with accomodation. The kitchen was a good size and allowed us to store flowers and foods we had brought in for my birthday celebrations. Beds were comfortable. The room met expectations.

Miinukset: The only improvement would be lighting. None of the rooms had the option of brighter lighting which made application of makeup a little more difficult. We stayed at city edge as it was my 50th birthday and we were celebrating nearby, 4 women were getting ready in the apartment so better lighting would in even one room would have made that easier. Overall the apartment met expectations.

Plussat: Excellent location.

Miinukset: The bed was very uncomfortable and there were no extra blankets for a cooler night.

Plussat: Rauhallinen sijainti, hyvät julkiset kulkuyhteydet, välttämättömät palvelut lähellä

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Entrance door very noisy, was continually opening and closing automatically by itself wit no one there, all night. Very thin walls very noisy, late check in early check out, very dated rooms, double beds was 2 singles pushed together, thin doona

Plussat: The bathroom was nice. It was clean. And good location.

Miinukset: looked nothing like the photos. Took 5 phone calls and 2 hours later for someone to bring us toilet paper.

Miinukset: Dirty crockery, unsafe electrical (multiple), broken blinds, inadequate cooking utensils, parking gate was broken, wifi intermittent at best, coin operated laundry - in poor state, broken furniture (dining room chair), no double bed - 2 singles pushed together. Location was different to what was listed we then had to walk with suitcases to alternate location.

Plussat: Very clean. Not huge but plenty of room for small family and full sized kitchen with full size fridge, cooktop, microwave and dishwasher so you could save some $$ making your own meals. Our apartment was on Gipps St which was a quick tram ride or leisurely 25 minute stroll through Fitzroy Gardens to the city.

Miinukset: Off street parking was free which was great, but you had to take pot luck as to whether or not you could actually get a spot when you got back from a day out. Smokers all sat outside at base of building and we couldn't open windows for fresh air on a few occassions because all the secondhand smoke would want in. Shower cubicle was extremely small which was an issue for my partner who is quite tall and broad-shouldered.

Plussat: The Hotel was within easy walking distance to the city,gardens and the sports facilities.

Miinukset: The toilet floor always had water around the bowl.The website was very confusing in regard to the facilities offered.eg no balcony or bath which were included in the price we agreed to pay.

Plussat: City location and convenience of facilities. Clean, functional and transportation close by

Miinukset: It had been advertised that I had one room with a queen size bed and the other with singles when in fact the queen bed was two singles put together. This was extremely uncomfortable to sleep on and not what was advertised.

Plussat: clean, comfortable, good location beside the tram, easy to get to city centre. Huge comfortable bed!

Miinukset: No towel change during a 3 day stay, broken blinds so sun beamed in in the morning.

Plussat: cheap hotel room, good location close to city, iron and cigarette burns in carpet bedspread, noisy room, window faced brick wall. close to trams and city supermarket and cafe nearby

Miinukset: reception a block away from hotel, reception was an elderly lady, nice but really slow. hotel hasn't has a makeover in 20 years

Plussat: location & space

Plussat: Great location near tram, shopping, excellent indian & Pizza restaurants very close. No room service/cleaning during our stay which i like but others may not. Also combo locks on doors no keys to lose.

Miinukset: extremely slow wifi, sometimes a bit noisy.
