Location location

Convenient location and being on the Main Street made it feel safe. Good kitchen facilities but the pool was very chlorinated (guess it needs to be as it was an indoor pool)

We required a 2 bedroom apartment during our stay. The Mantra on Russell was able to provide this to us without any issues. The reception staff could not have been more helpful in advising how to access the carpark or getting a trolley for our luggage. We requested housekeeping service during our stay and was granted this without any issues. Highly recommend this accommodation when in Melbourne. It is in such a great location as well.
