The location is great ,the service is ok,and the staff is great however they need to train their night staff,the one on Friday and Saturday late nights more better,me and my partner felt he was rude and didn’t have basic courtesy. He is the only hotel receptionist we have seen using a phone and being on call while working.And he was being more authoritative in his approach as if guests are a burden.The hotel needs to train their staff better and set better standards We would have definitely complained about him to the management,if we didn’t have a flight .
This is a long over due review. I stayed with together co-living for nearly a year. Honestly, I found this place through accommodation, something website. And was impressed at the start. I was given a good discount. I'm thankful, because before I was living in a car while looking for work and studying at the same time. My one month stay was amazing, but I noticed the monthly payment was not the same as promised. Was paying extra more. Made call, spoke to the management. They will play with you like a ping pong ball. I give up on it and downsized. Asked why, told em I was saving money, the look of the Indian (with the fancy suit) receptionist was disappointed. But because of this place. Made some friends of different backgrounds. Young, old, students, travellers. Sure, the place is all about money. But I am glad I have a roof over my head. The only disappointing thing about this place. Was the bond. Was never disclosed to me in detail. Found out I couldn't claim my bond plus cleaning fees? I can clean the room myself. Couldn't get my bond back even though the agent told me more than 8months I could get it back, but at the reception, they say a year. Could have informed me about it. But i believe it's the lack of communication between the business and the agents. They don't even try.
Nevertheless. I didn't want to stress over it. Sice money comew and goes. Cleaned my room out and left without a notice.
The memories made here were the best, but the management is garbage even their own employees admit to it.
I really did like staying there for 3 weeks. The gym and amenities are really good for the price. Shops and mini high street, restaurants and bars are 10-15 minutes walk. Transport options to and from the city are great, train is quicker from bell station than trams. Only downside is rooms only get serviced once a week but can ask reception for clean towels if needed. You will need to buy everything you’d need to live from hand soap to plates and cutlery which isn’t expensive. The girl who was being the desk on morning of 21/5/25 who dealt with us the most time was absolutely fantastic 10/10 for her, other staff were great I Didn’t have a problem like other comments said. Overall good stay for the price, great transport options and would recommend. I was on the top floor quiet and rooms are nice and modern.
Despite the bad reviews we thought we would give them a chance as the rooms are very affordable. We were so pleasantly surprised with the whole complex, checking was smooth, the room was beautiful with amazing views, spa bath was great, there's washing machines on every floor, WiFi works great, pool, eatery, gym I mean it really offered everything we needed! And the hotel provides a bag with tea, coffee, cups and things. Great location, walking distance from Northcote with lots of cafe, restaurants and vintage shops. Could not recommend more!
I had an incredibly frustrating stay at Together Co. Hotel Melbourne. From the very start, things went wrong. The hotel simply does not answer calls, making it impossible to get any assistance.
Upon check-in, I had to wait over 40 minutes in a queue because the only receptionist on duty had gone on a lunch break. With just one person handling everything, the process was painfully slow. To make matters worse, the TV in my room didn’t work on the very first day though it was fixed next day.
Parking was another nightmare. The vehicle gate wouldn’t open because they failed to enter our car details correctly into their system. We had to inform them multiple times. Even when checking out, we faced the same long wait, as the receptionist was extremely slow.
Overall, this hotel lacks proper management and basic customer service. If you value your time and expect decent hospitality, I do not recommend staying here.
The service is great but the room that I got was not managed. Some parts of the areas in the room have already been damaged. Also, the AC filter was not clean. I have a mild allergy, so yep. It triggered my allergy whenever I turned it on. I would highly recommend the accommodation to be separated from the student accommodation because holy cow, some people on my floor were just a bunch of animals. They were noisy and kept running around the hallway. Also, is this placed is used for hostel for lower class people? Because some people don't have any decency. Lastly, this room has to be fixed, especially the AC. Overall, 3 stars.
The staff were not good - they were not helpful at all an quite actually unfriendly at times
The facilities were very substandard- the kitchen area was unclean and messy and there was a severe lack of fridge space to the the extent that we didn’t even cook while there.
The laundry facilities too were not worth it.
There weren’t nearly enough (1 washer and dryer per floor) therefore they were always occupied. On 4 occasions within 3 hours i attempted to wash clothes to which i couldn’t)
The room was very pokey and the bed frame was not user friendly - on 5 occasions i hit my knee off the corner of the bed which was very frustrating 😂
Also the main issue was the air conditioning. The hotel run off a “centralised” controller which means that each room CANNOT control the temperature within the room. This meant that even in high temperatures (23+) we couldn’t cool our room down. This was the first occasion we experienced this on our travels, staying in multiple places (even places that cost half the money per night thay this place charged). Obviously an attempt to save money on electric bills. This was very uncomfortable so we had to avoid being in the room as much as possible due to this
Our room key cards also would not work any more than 1 use at a time - requiring us to have to make our way down to reception (via stairs whilst on the top floor) in order to access our room / use lift etc
Our room also had not even got basic cleaning products which come standard with EVERY other hotel / apartment / room we had stayed in during our travels . We had to go and buy our own products just to wash our hands. However upon checkout we had discovered that we were supposed to be provided with a welcome pack which had basic cleaning products i.e hand soap, shampoo etc which we weren’t obviously providied
I wouldn’t normally leave a bad review even in circumstances which call for it however i feel that any chance to deter tourists from this place i will take
Don’t waste your money !
