Check in was fine, reception staff were inviting at check-in.
Was in my room for about 1 hour after check-in and a young man opened my door without even knocking first. He was there to replace a filter on the air/con. He was surprised to see me there and said that according to his records the room was still vacant. I think a simple knock at the door would have been a good idea.
I was in Melbourne on business and expecting some incoming calls from overseas. I was disappointed there was no direct indial service to the room. The director of our NZ office (Belinda) tried to call me on the main number however it went unanswered and rung out. Belinda then called me on my mobile to say she could not reach me on the landline number. Belinda tried again and the female on reception finally answered. When she transferred the call it was put on hold and the call returned to the receptionist after about 1 minute. Belinda asked the receptionist what the problem was and the reply was "I'm very busy at the moment and I have customers here waiting to be attended to". Belinda asked if there was a direct number to reach my room on and the reply was "Nah, hold on I put you through now".
Belinda repeated this to me and I was shocked and not impressed - neither was Belinda!
After I finished my call with Belinda I called the reception desk to ask what had happened and ask about a direct number to my room. The tone of the reply was less than impressive.
I am a Managing Director of a company and if our receptionist handled calls in the same way they would not be working for me.
Might I suggest you invest in a direct indial telephone system.
Other than that it was a pleasant stay and I am likely to stay there again.
Kind regards
Nick. Nick from Sydney, Australia 10 July 2013

Everything was excellent, except we were cold. The heater didn't work very well and my husband suffers from asthma which is aggravated with cold air so neither one of us got a good sleep. We didn't report the issue at the time as we were only staying one night and didn't want to have to bother anyone. Jodie from Leongatha, Australia 10 June 2013

We have stayed at the Travel Inn at least 4 times on visits to Melbourne. The staff have always been very helpful, friendly and efficient. The location is excellent and special note on the quality and variety of the food at breakfast. We would not stay anywhere else and our friends in the UK have stayed at this hotel at least 12 times.

Location was excellent and the price of parking was very reasonable as we had 2 cars. It was a bit confusing where to park the car when checking in as there are no standing/parking signs outside the reception entrance - it would be good to have a sign saying hotel check in parking only. The staff were very knowledgeable and friendly.
The door to the bathroom was very squeaky (room 122) and the spa bath was not big enough to fit two average size people comfortably. However the king size bed was one of the most comfortable I have slept in and there was a plentiful selection of pillows to choose from. Also having a fridge in the room was very convenient. Overall the experience was great and I would probably stay here again. Julie from Narre Warren North, Australia 29 April 2013
