I really like Scape Carlton. The front desk staff are friendly, and there’s a tram stop right downstairs, which is very convenient. It’s located between Carlton and the city, about a 10-minute walk to local supermarkets like Coles and Woolworths, and 6 minutes to the affordable Aldi supermarket.

Built in 2022, the apartment building has relatively new facilities overall and good soundproofing. The Studio layout is quite well designed, though rooms facing the street can sometimes be noisy at night due to fire trucks.

The facilities are good, the maintenance is free, and appliances are replaced quickly when they break. Usually, there is little disturbance from the official side; you will only receive a few emails, and nothing else. Overall, the environment is quite nice.

Overall, the stay experience was average. The facilities were fairly basic and met essential needs, but some areas were a bit old. The internet speed was okay, with no major issues for daily browsing or watching videos. Soundproofing was poor; at night, sounds from the hallway and neighboring rooms could be heard, which could easily affect sleep. Cleanliness was normal, and the location was quite convenient, not far from the city center or the tram station. Facilities: Internet speed: Soundproofing: Cleanliness: Location:

I've lived in Carlton for half a year. The room has a wide view, and the kitchen and bathroom facilities are convenient and practical. The internet speed in the room is average, but it doesn't matter much since my phone has a good connection. There is a bus stop right at the door, and it's a 10-minute walk to Central train station. It's very close to China Town, Victoria Market, and the supermarket. A new supermarket has opened downstairs, which is great for those who love visiting Asian grocery stores. Overall, Swanston Street, where Carlton is located, is much quieter than Elizabeth Street. The staff in the building are also very friendly, making it a good choice for new international students in Australia!

About a ten-minute walk from the University of Melbourne, it's also relatively close to major supermarkets. You might encounter noisy foreign roommates next door, but feedback to the front desk and the agent from the foreign housing service will help resolve issues. If you don't mind the size of the room, a standard studio is completely sufficient, while a medium layout is more spacious and square. Overall, it's a suitable place for freshmen to start their journey (^_−)−☆
