“Okay, but won't be staying there again.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 July 2010

Not sure how old these apartments are but we stayed in a 'Penthouse' (2nd top floor) and was a bit surprised to find that many areas of it seemed to be left unfinished. VERY minimal cutlery/crockery and the DVD player in the TV was covered by gaff-tape, thus disallowing us the use of those we'd brought ourselves. TV signal keept dropping out for hours at a stretch. Room was slightly unkempt (used cotton-tips on bathroom floor). Washing Machine kept cycling through a 4 hour wash with NO drying (kept trying to set to dry but without a users manual it was frsuatrting after the 4th unsuccessful attempt). Cafe downstairs: Breakfast only til 10am then it shuts totally @ 2pm with no afternoon/dinner service. No Room Service although this is advertised. Wouldn't stay there again.

“hidden gem!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 June 2010

I was so surprised by Cube Serviced Apartments!
For $129 a night, in a spacious, modern room with balcony and King size bed, how can anyone complain!?!?
The room was well appointed, and super clean!
The only suggestion I have to cube is maybe putting in a couch instead of having to sit on the bed? It's meant to be an "apartment" and so a couch wouldn't go a stray.
The staff were friendly and helpful and the building was so quiet and comfortable.
Short walk to QV and trams which is a bonus too.
Would definitely stay again.. thank you!

“Stay it's great!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 June 2010

We had great service and wonderful memories of this apartment Hotel as we have stayed before. We are about to come up from Tasmania and are staying there again four nights this week. Close to everything and a HEAVENLY coffee maker downstairs. Watch out for the cab drivers. They say they don't know the lane so make sure you have the directions in your head to Exibition St. and your lane is 10 metres to the side.

“avoid at all costs”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 June 2010

Firstly we had trouble finding this place. When we finally got to our room it was tiny, really not an apartment but a crowded small hotel room. I would not recommend this to anyone.

“Great value for money”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 June 2010

people found this review helpful

On a girls shopping weekend. Apartment was new and very clean, except for sticky tiles on the bathroom floor and infront of the kitchenette. Carpets had a couple of stains and fridge had a really bad odour. Location was good. Customer service was fantastic, as good and probably better than some 5 star hotels. It had a small stove, microwave, fridge, cutlery, crockery - pretty much everything we needed. Noise was not a problem at all. Catch the airport shuttle - the door to door one for $15.00 each way, much better than the $65.00 taxi ride! Would stay here again.
