Bourke 2BR1BA Apt close to Chinatown centre

Fantastic location and transport links

A little bit noisey in one of the rooms from the street noise outside but to be expected with such great location

Very clean and cozy place, conveniently located in Melbourne CBD. It’s easy to get to many places from here, and you don’t need a car if you stay at this place.

Just the Wifi

No Breakfast Self Contained Location So Convenient

Location in the city was great, walking distance to lots of places in the CBD and tram stops nearby.

Locating the key locker was straightforward thanks to the instructions, but it wasn’t within walking distance to the property, meaning we had to make two stops with our Uber and he waited in between. Finding the actual entrance to the apartment was much harder — we spent at least 30 minutes walking around with our luggage before figuring it out. Some photos or clearer directions in the welcome message (e.g. that it’s down a small alley next to the tattoo shop) would have made things much easier. When I reached out to the property for help, I was told not to call but to message instead. The responses were blunt and not very helpful. Eventually I was given a number to call, but the interaction felt quite rude and unhelpful. Luckily, someone I was staying with happened to find the entrance during the call. For a $500 damage deposit, the apartment didn’t feel up to standard. While it was generally “clean,” the walls had many marks and didn’t look properly wiped down. The beds were also uncomfortable — I usually don’t mind firm or basic beds, but I struggled to sleep on these ones. Street noise was also noticeable at night, which may be an issue for light sleepers. The big window was great, but it's a little awkward as pedestrians can see in especially at night time. As the window is not tinted. So we mostly had the curtain down. Overall, the stay was okay but stressful at times. Clearer instructions, more helpful communication, and a few improvements to cleanliness and comfort would make a big difference.
