The hotels staff is kind, they help me to get early check in. The location was great, only a minutes walk to free tram zone (only 5 stop to Finder St Station). Walk for 5 minutes from southern cross station that connect to many destination. A lot of food, grocery store by walk. Very recomended

Everything was fantastic. The location was only a three minute walk to Southern Cross Station which was why I chose Best Western. The room was spacious and very comfortable. Best of all it was very quiet for the middle of Melbourne. Close to great food places. Had 3 meals from the Bahn Me place just around the corner in Flinders Lane. Very good. Close to everywhere. Only a 15 min walk to Bourke Street Mall. Staff were very helpful. I needed a photocopy of boarding passes for flights within my next destination India and the staff said that was no problem. Very happy. Will definitely recommend to family and friends.

The basin in the bathroom is too small. Water splashes to the ground when using it. The staff/hotel not accommodating enough. I requested them to help me keep my big luggage for 2 nites and was refused.
