Despite the cockroach and AC, it’s fair in general. Staff is nice, helpful and responsive for enquiry.
It will be great if check condition of the AC and repair/install a new one if necessary, it didn’t function properly sometimes, I was awake several times with sweat. Meanwhile, found dust from the AC on floor. Perhaps it’s time to get a AC.
But I was satisfied with room in general, with basic utensils for my daily cooking.

You get what you pay for. It lived up to my expectations I was not impressed nor was I disappointed in any way.
It is what it is, neat and tidy no fuss accommodation for the budget conscious traveller

Apartment was in a good location. Close to Lygon Street restaurants.
I did require parking and and while the hotel description said there was off site parking nearby for $20 per night, the check in staff could not tell me where that was. I was left to find a park myself, which ended up costing $50 overnight. So although the accommodation was slightly cheaper than near by hotels, the fact the parking cost so much, it would've worked out better to stay at one of the more expensive hotels, that had on site parking for $20 - $30.
I had planned on watching the football on TV, however the TVs do not have regular TV antenna connection. Only limited streamable content, which did not include the live tv channel apps.
Shower setup was weird, with the door opening inwards and covering the taps, making it impossible to turn the water on from out of the shower to get temperature right, before stepping in, so the risk of burning yourself is very real. Water also leaked out through the shower door, making the floor very wet and slippery once you step out. Pretty low quality, flimsy towel supplied for drying yourself also.
Room was clean though and fairly comfortable, although the bed was a little firm for my liking.
