Very good customer service. The room was clean and had everything that I needed. Stayed there five years ago and I think some things have been updated since then.
Always like to have a microwave and stovetop in the room.
It was well priced.
All good.

Helpfulness of staff.

Clean beds
The room was so tiny: the property is located right on a traffic light intersection so is noisy at all times of day. The entire place needs a good clean especially the stairwell carpet. Not good value for money

I would definitely NOT recommend staying here for several reasons.
One of the first things I noticed on arrival was that the back door to the property is latched open right through to 8pm at night. This allows anyone to walk in through the back laneway and carpark onto any of the floors and up to any apartment. This is an unmanned door and makes for poor security. This did not make me feel safe, and when I expressed my concern about this to the property reception, I was told that it was fine and not to worry about it.
When I checked in I was told that there was no room service anymore. These are promoted as serviced apartments, and the price I paid reflected that. These are certainly not serviced apartments – they're more like tired, old motel rooms (also with an unpleasant musty smell) and didn't meet my expectations of what was advertised.
In the room there is a sign above the stove advising that a maximum of 2 out of the 4 hobs could be used at any one time, along with warnings about what other appliances shouldn't be turned on at the same time. This made the kitchenette not fit for purpose and unsuitable for my stay.
I contacted Booking.com about these issues as the accommodation was not quite as advertised and unsuitable for my needs. I requested that I end my stay a day early and obtain a refund for the cancelled night. They contacted the property to discuss this and when the customer service representative asked to speak to the property's manager, they were hung up on!
When I spoke to the property manager in person he made no attempt at rectifying the issues or discussing options with me. The manager just continued to say that I could cancel my last night, but they have a no refunds policy.
I cancelled my final night's accommodation at Parkville Place (with no refund) and booked accommodation elsewhere which was definitely the right decision for me.

Location was good.
Cleanliness left a lot to be desired. Stairway carpets needed a good clean. Bathroom walls, particularly behind door needed cleaning. TV 'cubby' was very dusty. Was advised on arrival at 'serviced apartments' that they were not being serviced because of COVID. Water pressure was terrible.

The property is close to tram and the city . Bed was very comfortable
The property is in desperate need of renovation of the interior .

This place had some parking spot in front of the place
Charged extra for late check in . Keep repeatedly saying about 10 am checkout !!
Poor communication. A/C was not working, the instruction manual was not clear. got his face like he is doing some mercy on us. this guy should not run it instead give some friendly person to manage it

The location was great and the staff very nice and the room was ok and was a decent size with a separate room for the children to sleep in the location of the property is very good close to the city and attractions like the Melbourne Zoo and Lygon Street
They didn't service the apartment for the 8 nights we were there apparently because of covid-19 we did have to ask for toilet paper and towels and you can only use 2 kitchenette facilities at a time ie: stovetop and only two elements of the 4 or stovetop and kettle or the kettle and the toaster it trips out the fuses otherwise the place to got very dusty over the 8 nights and my partner has asthma allergies so this did not help with that I feel the room is outdated and needs new appliances installed as in air cons and kitchenette I don't know how they can advertisers service apartments when they don't service them

Not happy with apartment at all! Unit was disgusting, smelt of mold and urine, there were water stains on the carpet and dust over everything, like the room had not been occupied for years, only bed sheets seemed changed. The appliances had rust on them, and the balcony support was loose. Avoid Parkville Place Serviced Apartments if you don't want a terrible holiday experience.
Parkville Place Serviced Apartments Unit was disgusting and in very poor condition, assume this is why they always take money upfront and offer no refunds. After seeing and inspecting room, then asking for an alternate room or refund, was refused help point blank. Even worse, although we didn't stay there, we kept the room key, as they would not refund the $1,200 paid, they then contacted us 3 days later to ask for the key back, so they could sublet out our room out to other tenants (assuming for cash), if we weren't using the room anyway for the rest of the 9 day booking period. Reporting Parkville Place Serviced Apartments Unit property to VCAT today.

I like the location and access of the this place. It was close to Barkly Square and tram stops. There is also a train station near by. Price were pretty decent.
It was a bit dirty. The carpet looked very dirty and needed to be vacuum. The room did not have pots to cook or enough plates to use.
