Yeah I might be coming to Melbourne in Jan.

So where can I stay as cheap as possible, to maximise my financial capabilities :D :D

Botanical Gardens are nice that time of year. :D

I stayed at the Victoria Hotel in Little Collins St, not sure how much as it was part of a package, but it is one of the cheaper hotels, or try one of the backpackers hostels.

The gutter is cheap this time of year. Panoramic views (360 degrees!!!), plenty of room to move about, abundant natural sunlight, close to the city, within metres of shops - take in the sights, sonds and smells of the city. :)

Well....theres a motel in Hallam...directly across from the Hallam Hotel...which is a pretty popular place...about an hour (on the train) from the city. I dont think that would cost ya too much

Yeah count me in too! Although I might be over in Melbourne a little later on, perhaps April 2002. I've got a cousin I could stay with, but she's a little wacky, and I don't keep in contact with her too often.

Any cheap places to stay, no slums with druggies shooting up, not in woop woop, close to the city would be grouse.

Maybe I'll just crash at Spidergirls place. That ok? :p

Mase mate

I thought you were hinting a little bit & if I lived in Melbourne would have certainly offered, but if you ever head West then there is certainly a spare room here.
Cheers

Masey,

If you're skint the Catholic Uni has some accomodation that's supposedly non-hassle, clean & cheap. People at my uni use it.

Check out the Victoria Hotel, my regular B&B was booked out when I last went down [for the Blues/Dons game :( ] & my Vic friends booked me in there. Good value at $54...by Town Hall.:cool:

The Victoria in Little Collins St. is my home away from home whenever in Melbourne.

Have stayed there whenever in Melbourne for over 20 years now.

Its cheap, its clean, its central, its got parking, its got a great little bar, and does a nice continental brekkie every morning.

cheers

Hey Wukey anytime you make your way up to Brissy for a footy game you can always come and camp at mine or Keatings_Gal's place.

Same goes for any of you guys.... just let us know when ya's are coming and we can try and arrange something.

Bloody accomodation is a killer on top of your airfare and if your only staying for the weekend ... it gives ya a bit of extra spending money to make your visit more enjoyable.

Nothing worse than going on a trip and worrying about $$$$.

cheers... :)

I'm guessing J. 6th is the day set for the big game??

Hey mase, don't worry about anywhere to stay, cause' after that game you will be staying in the Hospital for a while!!:D :D

If I had my own place, you would be more than welcome, but I don't so you are not!!! Good luck.
