Ferienwohnungen in Victoria, Australien

The hotel carpet smells, the building is old and needs a total replacement of carpet. When we entered our room. It smells like bleach everywhere. We have to open the window to make it go away. The room is decent size and the toilet and bath are separated where there are no hand basin to use after using the toilet if someone is using the shower or bath tub. The view from our balcony is magnificent, the Melbourne tall buildings skyline. I also love the location because it is near public transport, free tram and shops, even universities. The kitchen are complete with cooking utensils and pans. They got free coffee, tea and milk. The toiletries were given 1 set of tiny bottles but we are 4 people booked in.

We booked a studio room, but quickly realized that not all studios here are created equal. We got the smallest studio as we consulted the floor plan. We didn’t ask for another room as we arrived after midnight, totally tired, after a long flight delay. The amenities were not as described here as well. There was no stove, thus no cooking utensils. We could only warm things up using the microwave. The location is near Queen Victoria Market, but 2 stops outside the free tram zone, so you have to pay or walk. Cleaning is only every 3 nights.

Lage: Der Bereich Box Hill, in dem sich das Hotel befindet, ist ein Treffpunkt für Chinesen, sodass Sie vollständig in das häusliche Leben eintauchen können. Das Hotel liegt am U-Bahn-Eingang von Box Hill. Es ist sehr bequem, auszugehen und man kann rund um das Hotel viele Supermärkte sowie viele chinesische Restaurants und chinesische Supermärkte erreichen. Ausstattung: Das Zimmer verfügt über zwei Schlafzimmer und zwei Badezimmer, auch die Ausstattung ist sehr neu. Erwähnenswert ist, dass es sich bei dem Herd tatsächlich um Erdgas handelt, das sich sehr gut zum Kochen chinesischer Speisen eignet. Ausgestattet mit einer kompletten Waschmaschine, Trockner, Küchenutensilien und Toilettenartikeln. Das Zimmer, in dem wir wohnten, lag auf einer oberen Etage und hatte eine sehr gute Aussicht. Obwohl es während meines Aufenthalts in Melbourne windig war, war der Lärm akzeptabel, nachdem ich die Ritzen in der Tür mit einem nassen Handtuch verschlossen hatte. Das Zimmer verfügt über einen Balkon und Fenster, die für gute Belüftung und Beleuchtung sorgen. Service: Ehrlich gesagt handelt es sich bei dem Hotel um eine Apartmentresidenz. Es gibt keinen sogenannten Rezeptionsservice und auch die Öffnungs- und Schließzeiten der Rezeption sind sehr genau. Dadurch konnte ich die Rezeption nachts nicht erreichen, sodass ich keinen besseren Service erwartet habe. Insgesamt ist das Hotel sehr kostengünstig und eignet sich besonders für Familien, da es über zwei Schlafzimmer verfügt. Allerdings liegt das Hotel weit von der Stadt entfernt. Die Fahrt mit der U-Bahn dorthin ist sehr durchschnittlich, sodass Geschäftsreisen etwas unbequem sein werden.

I’ve stayed at numerous at the Punt Hill apartments over the past decade, though it had been a while since I last stayed in one. Our one bedroom apartment was spacious, however the hotel is quite run down now. Walls in the bathroom weren’t very clean, neither were mugs and cutlery (I always make a habit of cleaning things before I use them!). I ended up staying mostly in the hotel as I was sick with the flu so I noticed the wifi was very glitchy and intermittent too so it made streaming shows quite difficult to watch that I ended up just using my phone. The beds were comfortable though! The location is actually fantastic too, right in the heart of China town and easily walkable to places.

It would have been good except for the large western facing windows left without blinds down and an electrical setup that turns the air conditioning off when no one is in the room. So we arrived to stifling heat, and an air conditioner that doesn't really cool the bedrooms, and no fans or windows in the main bedroom. Most other things were good, but having a comfortable room is fundamental and the apartment just isn't set up for that. We enjoyed the location and the pool. We can't really speak to service levels cos we didn't ask for, expect or get any. It was a bit frustrating that the hotel only had a booking for 4 adults when we made a booking for 2A+3C on trip.com but who knows who was responsible for that.

Not recommended for those who value their personal data security and privacy. Not recommended for internati9nal travellers who may not have enough charge on their phones to complete 3 forms, then download and set up an app that requires constant internet and Bluetooth connections. Booking required multiple insecure methods of sharing credit card details and identification documents along with 2 forms to fill out with personal details and an app to download in order to gain access to the Building entrance, Elevator, and Apartment. None of this information was given to me prior to booking. I would not have stayed here if I had known the extent of insecure transmission of personal information and amount of admin and work required just to check in and stay one night. I work in this space and know the risks. Management is putting guests personal data at risks with the excessive documentation requests. FYI, requiring someone to send credit card PICTURES and ID pictures over email is completely insecure. This is bizarrely at odds with the excessive security to get into the building. The constant need to carry your phone everywhere or you'd be locked of the apartment or even the whole building was extremely stressful. In terms of the actual room, once I got in, the bed, kitchen, lounge and floors were clean but the toilet had not been cleaned in a long time. This was not nice. You could see parts under the rim had not been cleaned in years. Toilet had also been recently used and not flushed properly upon arrival. I did not take photos of any of this, it was too gross. I ended up buying paper cups as the glasses/cups as those supplied were not clean, tried to take a picture but it's hard to see. They were covered in fingerprints and fibres of some kind. The view was nice and loungeroom was great, study nook was extremely handy for remote work. Balcony tiles are moving and could be a tripping hazard. Laundry was well equipped but did not have time to use it.

We stayed for one night and found the self-check-in and check-out process very easy and convenient. It was also great to have a dedicated parking space for each car. The interior was a bit loud, with a ”school trip” or ”auntie style” vibe, but everything was functional. We really appreciated the well-equipped kitchen and the heating mats in the bed, which were a nice touch for the colder weather. Overall, it was a good, practical stay.

Der Ort war schön für die 1 Nacht, die ich dort blieb.

Ich habe dieses Hotel aufgrund des Preises ausgewählt, aber das Zimmer war sehr praktisch. Das Bett war flauschig und großartig. Alle Küchenutensilien waren vorhanden und es gab einen Supermarkt und einen Spirituosenladen in der Nähe, so dass ich mir das Abendessen zubereiten konnte. Das Hotel liegt etwas weit von einem großen Bahnhof mit Restaurants und Geschäften entfernt und die Umgebung des Hotels ist Teil einer Gruppe von Hochhäusern neben der Schnellstraße, sodass es sich um einen überfüllten und ungepflegten Bereich handelte. Von unserem Zimmer aus konnten wir jedoch das Meer bis dorthin sehen und ein großes Schiff fuhr vorbei, was ein sehr seltener Anblick war! Da ich in Eile einen Mietwagen gemietet hatte und keinen Parkplatz reserviert hatte, konnte ich nicht auf dem hoteleigenen Parkplatz parken, sondern es gab einen Parkplatz vor dem Hotel, auf dem ich je nach Uhrzeit kostenlos parken konnte , das wurde mir gesagt und ich hielt das Auto an. Ich hatte einen äußerst zufriedenstellenden Aufenthalt.

I stayed at house 13 on March 10 2025, and there a gang of black people having a party over the night at house 12. I don't want to discrimate people and I used the word ”black” merely to describe that group of people that night. The music is very loud, and from time to time there are heavy drum beats which you can feel the vibration from the floor, and sometimes they knocked the wall of the townhouse separating house 13 / 12, and I supposed no one can sleep under this situation. Both my wife and me could not sleep but scared because they are young & strong black males. Finally we turned on the light at 2 a.m. and open the curtain to tell them to quiet from our 1/F balcony when 3 of them were arguing with a woman loudly in the common backyard. They ignored and continued! At 5 p.m. it's raining but I could not tolerate anymore, I went out to tell them silence please! A big tall black guy (not brown, very black) said ” I got you!”. Frankly speaking, I was a little bit scare., but what elase I could do?! When the reception open next day (house 1?), I complained and requested a change of room (actually house). The reception ladies are very friendly and they said they had reported the police twice that night for the noise is too loud & affecting many customers staying at different houses that night. But they do the same regardless the police warning. According to the reception, she had blacklisted this customer from booking the Quest hotel chain nationalwide (Australia) anymore. When I returned to the hotel the other day, I got a thank you card apologize for what had happened together with a bottle of wine for the inconvenience caused. Although I had a nightmare in this hotel, I think it is a one-off incident, and I will still recomend this service apartment.
