I lived at Scape La Trobe for over 2 years and it truly felt like home. The community events were a nice addition, especially when I first moved in, and helped create a welcoming atmosphere around the building. The location is excellent, with trams right outside, Melbourne CBD, shopping centres, universities and the State Library all within easy reach. The rooms are comfortable, and the amenities are great, including the study rooms, cinema room, pool tables and communal kitchen. The view from my room was amazing, and watching the Melbourne sunsets was one of my favourite parts of living here. A special thank you to Hasan for always being approachable and willing to help whenever needed. I'd also like to thank Komal, Jason and the rest of the team for being so friendly and supportive throughout my stay. If you're new to Melbourne and looking for student accommodation, I would definitely recommend Scape. It's a great place to start 🫶🏻

I’ve lived at Scape La Trobe for the past 2.5 years and have had a really positive experience during my time here. The location is excellent for students, with universities, public transport, supermarkets, and everything you need within walking distance. The facilities are well maintained, and it’s been a comfortable place to call home. A special mention to Hasan, the Operations Manager, who has always been incredibly helpful, approachable, and supportive. Whenever I’ve needed assistance, he has taken the time to help and make sure things were sorted out. His dedication to residents really stands out and has made a big difference to my experience. I’d also like to thank all the staff at Scape La Trobe. Everyone is friendly, welcoming, and always willing to help. They work hard to create a positive and supportive environment, which is something I’ve really appreciated throughout my stay. Overall, I’ve had a great 2.5 years here and would happily recommend Scape La Trobe to other students looking for accommodation in Melbourne.

Chose Scape La Trobe as my student accomodation for an internship I was doing over the summer. Building and staff were great. Facilities were excellent. Close by to supermarkets and stores with a tram line right outside. Tip for any new students, is to make sure you choose your own room if possible to avoid having a bad view or living near the bin chute. Thanks
Stella Todd
I lived at Scape for a few months and found it was a lovely living space, the communal areas were comfortable and relaxing. It was great being in the city and i was always happy with how i felt security wise. Reception was always so helpful answering questions or helping out! My only complaints were personal preferences with room styling and light avaliability but it really depends on rhe room. Other than minor inconviniences the facilities were amazing.
Gavin Yu
Absolutely fun staying here! The staffs are very friendly and the amenities are incredible. Living in a student accomodation helps me to stay in touch with my uni mates and expand my social network. All the well-organised student events really bring the whole community together.
