Service was great - The staff are terrific! The room was clean and nice, I really liked staying here the only thing I can complain about is the noise that comes from the trains but it's not too bad. It's walking distance to tram stop and it's not that far from the CBD. More

the property doesnt disclose costs to guests, the staff are rude. There is no courtesy or consideration for customers. The rooms are very old, noisy with trains rattling passed the windows, The rooms are inferior quality and overpriced and you can do far better for your money with other hotels in the area.

I stayed here for 3 weeks on business and have to say it one of the worst apartment stays I've ever had.

This will be quick. The Mantra on Jolimont is right next to the MCG and across the train lines from Rod Laver Arena etc. The hotel used to be called the Saville. Rooms are becoming dated.
