Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Distance from the city centre — The apartments are a 25-minute walk from Windy Hill Essendon Event Venue and require a tram ride to reach central Melbourne.
- No on-site food service — There is no restaurant or meal service at the apartments, so guests need to plan meals or eat out.
- Inconsistent housekeeping standards — While most guests found the apartments clean, one detailed a very negative experience with dirt and odour, and another noted a booking mix-up. These are isolated but notable.
- Check-out at 10:00 — The check-out time is 10:00, which may feel early for some travellers.

7.4Verified guest“The location was ideal – close to the highway, tram stops and Essendon Private Hospital. The staff were incredibly helpful and generous with their time. The room had everything I needed: ironing facilities, a sitting area, an in-room safe, free Wi-Fi, a washing machine and a full kitchen. The flat-screen TV and carpeted floors added a touch of luxury, and I enjoyed dining in my own room.”
7.4Verified guest“The management were very helpful and considerate of guests' needs and preferences.”
7.4Verified guest“The apartments are big and comfortable. Even though Keilor Road is busy with trams, you can't hear any noise inside. The basement car park has a lift straight to your floor, and parking is free. They even offered a free airport pickup when I booked. Foxtel includes more movie channels than most hotels, at no extra cost. The tram stop is a short walk from the front door, and while there's no food service on site, Cafe Stregga across the road is very good. Plenty of restaurants are within a short walk or a few tram stops.”
7.4Verified guest“The beds were comfortable and the bathroom was new and modern. The location was great – within walking distance of shops and restaurants and close to public transport. We also appreciated the free guest parking.”
7.4Verified guest“The distance from the city and the airport, the proximity to restaurants, and the price were all excellent.”
