We stayed at the Drummond Serviced Apartments in November 2008. The location was amazing - we were one street back from Lygon Street (so had incredible breakfasts every day), and a 20-30 minute walk from Brunswick Street, right near a tram line into the city, and a free sightseeing bus which ran along Lygon Street. This area was really great - lots of fantastic restaurants and shops, a supermarket about a 2 minute walk away, gorgeous bars and gelatto shops, a chemist and a huge bookstore.
The apartments themselves were nice - very large and comfortable. We had a daily cleaning service and mobile access to call the manager if we needed anything. The accommodations were not really plush, so if you are looking for something a bit more fancy you might be disappointed, but we found our stay very comfortable, pleasant and hassle-free. The location alone makes the rooms worth it.
