Chapel St Backpackers is directly across from Windsor train station on
the Sandringham metro line - around 10 mins from the city. It has one
of the only 24 hour bottle shops in all of Melbourne directly across
the road.

Sorry, but I actually live in Melbourne and therefore have no idea
about the quality of the place, no idea about internet access,
kitchen etc etc.


What I can tell you is that there are several local bars on or off
Chapel St. You will have no problems getting a beer locally. I
recommend Greville St at the moment - Boutique, Cherry, the Greville
etc. Loads of cool bars there.

If you have any questions at all about Melbourne, don't hesitate to
fire away..

I satyed in one in St. Kilda, although I can't remember the name. We
stayed in so many they all merged into one name! It was above a pub
called the Elephant and Wheelbarrow or something and right across from a
tram, a park and a 5 minute walk to the beach. Sorry I can't remember
the name. There are really good hostel services at the airport where you
can press a number and get straight through to any hostel, ask them
questions and if you want to stay they arrange for you to be picked up.

There are very, very few 24 hour bottle shops in Melbourne.
