Yes it is true that there are few dusts and quite old building. But it is affordable. Considering price and location, you cannot expect some 5-star hotel facilities. But what i like about this place is it is near garden, not noisy! I also like the fact that laundry facilities are free to use! So if you want cheap but... More

I booked a 1 bedroom apartment at 32 Darling St it as a 'hot' special at $65 per night. The Darling Towers website advertises the room that I booked as a standard nightly rate of $140. If I had known in advance what the room is really like, I wouldn't even had paid $65. The room was dated and musty... More

My husband and i stayed here (85 Caroline St) for 10 days. Location was very good, with easy access to cafes, restaurants, train station and chapel st. Facilities also good. Free parking, washing machine and dryer and basic kitchenette. The bed was comfortable too. However the apartment had a shabby, old feel. Dirty bathroom, and cigarette smells. Kitchenette VERY basic... More

We have stayed at 32 Murphy street in a 2 bed apartment from the same owners and found it very good value, but 343 Caroline street is a DUMP! The bath was discoloured and had peeling paint on it, the shower head was broken, bathroom floor was filthy even afer a maid came and rearranged the mud, TWO light bulbs... More

My family and I were visiting Melbourne and looking for an apartment rental that included a kitchen. We found Darling Towers online and noticed it was conveniently located and priced well. However, that's where the good points end. We were given a room at the back of the building, which apparently had a train station running through it. As soon... More

We stayed in the one bedroom on Darling street for a week. On the positive side of things, it was well-located (within walking distance to the train station, restaurants, chapel st, etc), had everything we needed for an extended stay and was really more spacious than the average hotel room - we even were able to invite friends over for...

We stayed twice at Darling Towers. We spent four nights in a two bedroom apartment on Darling Street, and thee nights in a one bedroom apartment at 43 Caroline Street. Both were booked as a economy, but the one bedroom was an upgrade. The location was great in South Yarra. The apartments were very good value. The economy apartment was... More

Aside from the convenience of the location everything else was rubbish. Would not recommend this place to anyone, unless the following appeals to you - * Overwhelming musty smell in the apartment * Very badly worn carpets * Mysterious stains on the carpets * Sticky floor in the kitchen * Broken taps * Broken bathroom tiles * General building condition...

We rented a 2-bedroom apartment for 5 persons, for 3 nights at AUD140 per night. Everything you basically needed is available. The only problem I encountered was the shower tap, which came off and the erratic hot water supply - which I have to constantly adjust with the cold water while showering. More
