ibis Budget - Melbourne Airport

The room was new and light and the bed comfy. Best of all it had a lightweight blanket as well as the far- too- warm duvet, so I didn't boil all night.

I wanted some no-frills airport transit accommodation after a midnite arrival from overseas. Ibis Budget delivered exactly what l needed at a price comparable to getting to and from the city if staying at a friend's place but without the cost, hassle and time of bus/taxi/transport. It exceeded my expectations with a few little touches like a kettle with tea, coffee and milk provided and actual drinking glasses rather than paper cups. Compact shower and toilet worked fine with great water pressure and generously sized towels. Clean comfy bed with numerous quality pillows and plenty of space in the room for luggage. Also, snack foods and drinks available in the lobby. A quick no-hassles check-in to my prepaid room and good soundproofing. Multiple power-points available for charging accessories. Highly recommended and l will be using this hotel again if l need overnight transit accommodation in Melbourne.

The room was cozy enough for one night stay. The bed and the pillows were extremely comfy.

The hotel is super close and very walkable even with a big suitcase. Check in was a breeze and the desk clerk carried my suitcase up the stairs. The room was spotless and the sheets were crisp. There were enough clean towels and an extra blanket. It was perfect for what i needed which was a bed for the night. The free breakfast was better than expected and check out was simple.

The proximity to the airport was perfect. Less than 10 mins to walk from the terminals. It is a budget hotel, but it was clean and comfortable. For late arrivals, or early departures it was a bed, shower and somewhere to stay until the next leg of your journey.
