When I booked it said free parking at the premises!
Was on street parking that had to pay for 2 hours!
Had to pay a deposit $100 which is going to be refunded?
Was only shown stairs to the room level !
Had to report poor quality of television service!
Was rectified quickly!
Good hotel, very quiet except the metallic stairs and elevator. The metallic stairs are very noisy and loudly resonate when people use it. The elevator rings every time it gets to request floor, which is useless and pretty annoying. Those noises can be heard from the room and hear plugs are necessary in evening and morning if you want to sleep
Very quiet place near the Park, still a lot of Food options especially on Clarendon Street. 20 Minutes walk to the Center and botanical Garden and affordable prices!!

We a good stay at Lily Sands. Very good location. Unfortunately, the TV did not work, the Air-conditioner made a huge noise and the shower curtain was not sufficient to keep the bathroom floor dry.
It started raining during the night, which caused the tree next to the window to slam it's branches onto the walls and window f the building. Very scary noise. Did not sleep well.

Great room
Great room and location for price. Air con needs updated but still works
I stayed here twice in two weeks, having returned due to the friendly service and great location from my first visit. Only downside was it can be a bit noisy from the street. The comfortable bed and clean facilities made up for this.
It was a friendly greeting from the staff member who was quite helpful. The room was adequate for our stay and the bathroom was clean and the shower was excellent. The only problem was that there was nowhere to sit apart from the bed. This made eating very hard. I know it was a small room but just having even a couple of folding chairs would have been nice so you could sit and have a nice cuppa. In all it was pretty comfortable.

Great location, the hotel is within walking distance to city and MSAC. Room is clean and staffs are very nice and helpful. If you are looking to stop and rest, this hotel offers the best option you can get in south Mel. Price is very reasonable, very good dollar value.
Good location. I recommend to anyone looking for accommodation in this area.

This property was close to our sport venue so ideal location. Unfortunately beds were not correct according to our booking and couldn’t be rectified in time for our sleep. This affected our comfort and purpose for stay. Disappointing

It was fine. I would love loved to stay in a room on the 1st floor as I could hear people walking up and down the stairs all night.
