Scape Carlton is student accommodation at 581 Swanston Street, Carlton VIC 3053, offering shared apartments and single studios. The University of Melbourne is around a 7-minute walk away, and RMIT University around a 4-minute walk. Students wanting to walk to class while comparing sharing with a single room can start with these two considerations.
Public transport and routes to class
Melbourne Central Station is around a 7-minute walk away, with tram stops on Swanston Street and Elizabeth Street outside the building.
Compare your teaching building address with your timetable. A university name alone can overlook where classes actually take place, so try your intended route during an inspection before planning daily departures.
Study and leisure beyond your room
Study spaces, a gym, cinema and gaming area provide places to spend time outside your room. A communal kitchen and dining area are also listed, along with cleaning of shared apartment common areas.
Ask which shared apartment areas the cleaning service covers during your inspection.
