I had a great stay, I booked a single room with a shared bathroom, and it was perfect for my needs. The staff were really friendly and helpful, and the room and bathroom were clean and comfortable. Even though I had a shared bathroom, I never saw anyone else, and it felt very private.

Great location and view from deck/guest kitchen. Room was comfortable. Guest noise during day but quiet after 10. Toilet paper wasn’t replaced in shared bathrooms one night but minor issue.

Good for the price
Melbourne Lodge is great for the price. The rooms are big enough and the shared lounge/kitchen area is very useful. The shared bathroom facilities are clean and modern. The walls are quite thin and there is a lot of noise when other guests are walking through the hallways but that’s only a minor gripe. Other than that, a great spot.

Great place to stay, short walk to town as long as the return steep hill isn’t an issue. Really good common room stocked with crockery, cutlery and cooking items for use, with access to front balcony and amazing view of the lake. Very comfortable queen bed room with a small balcony, furniture a bit tired but very clean. Would recommend.
