The accommodation has studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments, with different sizes and configurations across each category. Alongside the private accommodation, residents have access to practical services, bicycle storage and security facilities within the property. Outside the building, Flinders Street puts Melbourne's public transport network, cafés, restaurants, shops, libraries and social venues close to home.

The studio apartments provide a self-contained arrangement with a private kitchen, bathroom and combined living and sleeping area.
The Studio Apartment - Standard starts from AUD 504 per week, while the Studio Apartment - Double starts from AUD 485. A studio apartment with a twin is available from AUD 504 per week.
There are also general Studio, Studio Double and Studio Twin categories. Their starting prices are AUD 484, AUD 504 and AUD 484 per week respectively.
These different studio categories give students several configurations to consider while retaining the basic independence of having their own apartment space.
For students who would like a clearer separation between their sleeping and living areas, the one-bedroom options provide a separate bedroom alongside the rest of the apartment.
The One Bedroom Apartment - Standard starts from AUD 525 per week, while the One Bedroom Apartment - Large starts from AUD 565. General 1-bedroom accommodation is listed from AUD 524, with 1-bedroom large options from AUD 558 per week.
The additional space in these apartments can be useful for students who want their accommodation to feel more divided into areas for sleeping, studying and relaxing.
The two-bedroom category provides an option for students who prefer to share an apartment while retaining separate bedrooms.
The 2 Bedroom Apartment - Standard starts from AUD 588 per week, while the 2 Bedroom Apartment - Large starts from AUD 638. The general 2-bedroom option is also listed from AUD 588, with 2-bedroom large from AUD 638 per week.
These apartments can suit students sharing with a friend or those who simply prefer having more space within their accommodation.
Rent at Student Living on Flinders includes internet connectivity, covering two related services that are particularly relevant to university life.
WIFI building-wide
High-speed internet access
A reliable internet connection is important for online coursework, university platforms, research, streaming and keeping in touch with family and friends. Having internet access included as part of the accommodation arrangement also means students do not have to organise a separate connection for their apartment.
The Student Living on Flinders address at 238 Flinders Street, Melbourne VIC 3000, places the property directly within Melbourne's CBD.
That location puts residents close to some of the city's best-known streets, public transport connections and central attractions. Daily routines can therefore look quite different from suburban student living: a trip to university can be combined with grabbing lunch, picking up groceries, visiting a library or meeting friends in the city.
There is a broad mix of places around the property, covering the things students are likely to need during an ordinary week.
Having grocery stores within the CBD makes it possible to pick up food and household essentials without making a separate journey out of the city.
Melbourne's café and restaurant culture is one of the defining features of central-city life, and residents at Student Living on Flinders have plenty of choices around them.
For coffee, Dukes Coffee Roasters and Brunetti Oro Flinders Lane are nearby options. When it is time for a meal, places such as Elio's Place, Tippy-Tay, Chin Chin and MoVida Next Door provide different dining choices.
The variety means there are options for everything from a quick coffee between classes to sitting down for a meal with friends.
Central Melbourne also gives residents access to a substantial retail area. The Block Arcade, Bourke Street Mall, Emporium Melbourne, QV Melbourne and Melbourne Central are all within reach. Each provides a different shopping environment, from the historic arcade setting to larger retail centres and department-style shopping.
For students, this also makes it easier to combine shopping with other city errands rather than travelling separately for each one.
Living centrally does not mean giving up access to outdoor spaces.
St Paul's Cathedral Green offers a smaller place to sit and take a break, while Birrarung Marr and Alexandra Gardens provide larger green spaces closer to the Yarra River.
Students who prefer to stay active can also use nearby fitness facilities such as Fitness First Flinders St Platinum and Dohertys Gym City.
The accommodation provides a private setting for study, but students also have access to libraries around the CBD.
City Library and the State Library Victoria offer additional environments for reading, research and longer study sessions. Having these options nearby can be particularly useful when students want a change from working in their apartment.
Melbourne's central pub scene provides another part of the local social environment.
Residents can meet friends at places such as Young & Jackson, The Duke of Wellington and The Waterside Hotel. These venues give students options for spending time with friends outside the accommodation and university campuses.
One of the defining features of the Student Living on Flinders location is its access to public transport. Flinders Street itself is closely associated with Melbourne's transport network, and residents have tram, train and bus services nearby.
The Swanston St/Flinders St #5 tram stop provides access to Melbourne's extensive tram network. For students travelling around the CBD and beyond, trams can form an important part of the daily commute.
Flinders Street Station is just moments from the accommodation. It is one of Melbourne's major transport hubs and provides train connections to different suburbs as well as access to regional Victoria.
Its proximity is particularly useful for students whose university, workplace or other regular destination is outside the immediate CBD.
Bus services are also available around the property. Nearby stops include Swanston St/Flinders St #5 and Banana Alley Vaults/Flinders St, providing further connections across Melbourne.
With trams, trains and buses all close to the Student Living on Flinders address, residents have several public transport options rather than having to depend on a single route.
The central location also makes Student Living on Flinders relevant to students attending several major educational institutions.
The University Of Melbourne is accessible from the accommodation by public transport. Students can use the city's transport connections to travel between the CBD and the university precinct.
Victoria University is also accessible from the property, making Student Living on Flinders an option for students whose campus is located away from Flinders Street itself.
For students attending William Angliss Institute Australia, the central location provides convenient access to the institute and its surrounding educational precinct.
Being based close to major transport connections also gives students more flexibility when their university timetable changes or when they need to travel elsewhere in Melbourne.
Student Living on Flinders is operated by UniLodge, with facilities focused on the practical requirements of students living in a central Melbourne property.
The accommodation's facilities are more focused on security, building services and everyday convenience than on a large collection of recreational spaces.
Security facilities include security patrols, which provide regular monitoring around the property.
Security cameras are also used to monitor common areas, while 24-hour security provides an around-the-clock security presence.
For students living away from home, these arrangements form an important part of the residential setup, particularly given the property's location in the busy Melbourne CBD.
The property has an on-site reception, operated during business hours, and a Front Desk for resident queries, assistance and package collection.
Students who cycle around Melbourne can make use of Free Bicycle Storage, providing a dedicated place for their bikes within the property.
The public areas are air-conditioned, which helps maintain a comfortable environment within shared parts of the building during Melbourne's warmer periods.
Student Living on Flinders offers self-contained student accommodation in Melbourne's most central locations. The room range includes studios, one-bedroom apartments and two-bedroom apartments, with different sizes and configurations across the categories.
The accommodation also includes building-wide WiFi and high-speed internet, while practical services such as reception, front desk assistance and bicycle storage are available within the property. Security patrols, cameras and 24-hour security provide the main security features listed for residents.
Outside the building, the Flinders Street location becomes a significant part of the living arrangement. Grocery stores, cafés, restaurants, shopping centres, libraries, green spaces, gyms and pubs are all part of the surrounding CBD. Flinders Street Station and nearby tram and bus services also provide connections across Melbourne.
For students looking through Student Living on Flinders photos, it is worth considering the property alongside its immediate surroundings. The accommodation provides the private apartment, while the central location puts much of Melbourne's transport, dining, shopping and social infrastructure close to the front door.

3.5 🌟 Centrally located budget accommodation. Pros: Most convenient location in CBD, right opposite Flinders St. Many famous restaurants as soon as you step out. Woolies, Coles are in the adjacent block. Some houses come furnished. Rentals are reasonably priced as well. Cons: Facade as well as the interiors are quite old compared to the modern apartments nearby.

I agree with the other reviews. The level of sound pollution in this building is crazy both in and out. There's not much you can do since the construction is already approved by the City of Melbourne that seems outlaw the general commercial & resident noise law in Victoria. On top of that you get to deal with noisy neighbours that always fight, yell, scream, bash security doors, etc. I've reported the nuisance, yet not much has changed. I really like my unit and the location. However, there's too much I sacrifice to live here. The quality of life is not okay because your basic needs (sleeping, security) are at risk. I wish I could add videos and voice records here so anyone who is considering to live here can figure out what they are signing up for 😱😵

Good things: location is good, place is safe to stay. Bad things: too small, carpet not really clean, noisy. Not worth the price. With similar price, can find a better studio apartment; Or with a lower price, can find a better share house and you take one bedroom in the City. Stayed there for 6 months. Studio ($375 weekly) with kitchen and bathroom, including all bills, except electricity. Electricity too expensive!! I didn’t turn on fan and heater at all, and not even used the light often. I normally use table lamp with low wattage light bulb, so then I can save my electricity bills. However, it turned out $130 per month!! Now, I’m living with my friends, 3 ppl in the apartment , we turn on all the light, turn on aircon if too hot, watching TV and play switch all the times. Our electricity bill only $80 per month for 3 ppl. Compare to unilodge, $130 per month for only 1 person!!!! I asked reception about this, they said that’s normal. Hence, once my contract finished, I moved out straight away, couldn’t wait to move.

The drying machine isn't drying effectively.

Considering the affordability and location, I would recommend this place to any new students in the city (especially those from overseas) - It is an old building but the commute from this area is the easiest to get in and out of the city. Unilodge specifically has been very helpful and accommodating, the people are very kind and the process of move-in and leaving was as seamless as I could have asked for.
