In its day, this would have been a four star hotel. It has aged since then and the expectations of some might fall short as its a bit shabby. But, when you analyse it, the room was quiet, the shower was powerful and so was the wifi. Parking was convenient and the QV market is nearby. The trade-off for its age is that the pricing was competitive, so the bottom line is that it was fine for our 2 night stay. I wouldn't honeymoon here, but if you need a bed in N Melbourne at a reasonable cost...... it's fine.
