District Apartments Fitzroy

Not recommended for those who value their personal data security and privacy. Not recommended for internati9nal travellers who may not have enough charge on their phones to complete 3 forms, then download and set up an app that requires constant internet and Bluetooth connections. Booking required multiple insecure methods of sharing credit card details and identification documents along with 2 forms to fill out with personal details and an app to download in order to gain access to the Building entrance, Elevator, and Apartment. None of this information was given to me prior to booking. I would not have stayed here if I had known the extent of insecure transmission of personal information and amount of admin and work required just to check in and stay one night. I work in this space and know the risks. Management is putting guests personal data at risks with the excessive documentation requests. FYI, requiring someone to send credit card PICTURES and ID pictures over email is completely insecure. This is bizarrely at odds with the excessive security to get into the building. The constant need to carry your phone everywhere or you'd be locked of the apartment or even the whole building was extremely stressful. In terms of the actual room, once I got in, the bed, kitchen, lounge and floors were clean but the toilet had not been cleaned in a long time. This was not nice. You could see parts under the rim had not been cleaned in years. Toilet had also been recently used and not flushed properly upon arrival. I did not take photos of any of this, it was too gross. I ended up buying paper cups as the glasses/cups as those supplied were not clean, tried to take a picture but it's hard to see. They were covered in fingerprints and fibres of some kind. The view was nice and loungeroom was great, study nook was extremely handy for remote work. Balcony tiles are moving and could be a tripping hazard. Laundry was well equipped but did not have time to use it.

Lovely apartment in good location ,close to an abundance of food shops and supermarkets also close to tram lines for easy access to the city , clean and well stocked with all we needed and although no reception on site the service via phone was fantastic. Would stay again for sure.

I unfortunately parked our car in the car stacker in the underneath car park in accordance with their instructions. After collecting the car I found the front of it damaged apparently by the car stacking mechanism. I contacted the hotel to report it and informed the general manager would contact me. I also asked for the number plate (torn off the front bumper to be returned. I have not heard from the general manager and my three email have not been answered. On a later phone call I was told that I would have to pay for a call out if I wanted to get our munger plate back. Their communication is appalling. Could not possibly recommend this hotel.

great stay however communication between the employees and the cleaners must be better, elevator wasn’t working and was told a cleaner would be coming down waited 20 minutes still no one so i rang again to be told she is only just replying and coming now than another 10 minutes i rang again and was told they would send someone down now??? pretty poor but overall the stay was lovely

Walking distance to everywhere even the Melbourne CBD We will be back

Accommodation was fantastic however the parking was AWFUL!!!

Couldn’t fault the apartment but getting in required accessing app 3 times every time! When we arrived we couldn’t access our key fob to parking and after several calls we were told the parking fob dispenser was broken and the key was in our room. The people I spoke to regarding all our problems were polite but both said they hadn’t been to the apartments so could t help with location of car park!! We didn’t use the park as it was so tight and we had two other clients do the same which meant on the first night we had to pay $42 for overnight parking in Aldi!! Next day being Sunday we found a free street park. We arrived at 3pm and by the time we accessed our room we were so stressed, never ever have we had so much trouble checking in. Unless you have a very small car or you are used to using a stacking carpark don’t book this accomodation.

Clean and quiet with easy access to dining, shopping and trams. Deserved a longer stay to make use of the facilities provided.

Very happy with quality of apartment .Well equipped ,and comfortable bed and couch .2 x TVs .Great location walk to everything .Interesting shops and eateries . Dislikes; digital key did not work well on apt door .Not enough data coverage inside building .Took several goes before opening.Advertised parking then said couldnt fit my standard Mazda 6 in bays .A/C remote did not work at all even with new batteries .Had to switch on at wall unit.
