Ibis Styles Melbourne Airport
"Clean and well maintained room. Staff were helpful and pleasant. We didn't have breakfast as part of our stay but rather a light snack at the coffee shop outside, food was ok but nothing special. The additional charge to use the on-site pool and gym felt excessive and we chose not to use it."
