Ibis Budget - Melbourne CBD

The shower room was small, and after using it, the area around the sink was soaking wet. I also had to go and borrow a hairdryer, and the room door was broken, which wasn't great.

Breakfast was very mediocre and not worth the price; you're better off eating out. However, the hotel's location is quite convenient for getting around and finding food, and check-in at the front desk was smooth.

The facilities are a bit old and the cleanliness is just so-so. Replenishments weren't timely. However, the location is incredibly convenient for transportation and dining. Everything is close by. For the price, the breakfast was decent.

A simple and compact hotel. It's close to the train station, and there are restaurants and fast food options nearby, which is convenient for late-night snacks. If you have high expectations, you might be disappointed as the photos don't quite match reality.

There was urine on the bed sheets, blood on the pillows, and someone knocked on the door in the middle of the night. Easily the most terrifying hotel stay of my life. On top of that, they refused to refund my deposit upon check-out. Don't be a sucker like me—stay away!

If you think the room rate is low enough to tolerate everything, then go ahead and book it, because the location is indeed excellent. However, I've already experienced it and won't be staying again. I booked two separate nights. When I went to check in, the front desk was staffed by an Indian girl with a very bad attitude. She couldn't find my record for the second night and kept suspecting I was trying to stay for free. It wasn't until I showed her the confirmation letter from Ctrip that she started chattering in a language I barely understood, gave me the room card and directed me to my room. When it was time to sign the confirmation, she practically threw the pen at me. I was already annoyed then, but I didn't expect to be even more disappointed once I entered the room. The facilities are old, like a hotel from the 70s or 80s in China. The exhaust fan couldn't be turned off and kept running, making so much noise that I couldn't sleep all night. The shower and toilet are separate and both very small. The sink had grime that wasn't cleaned, and I almost threw up when I brushed my teeth. Anyway, I won't be going back next time, there won't be a next time.
