To help speed up the check-in process, we recommend installing the Livvi app prior to arriving. You can access the app for Apple or Android here:
Once the Livvi app is installed, you will be asked to register. Please use the email address that you used to place your booking with Iglu. Your key will not appear immediately, it will appear once you have been checked in at Iglu Melbourne Central.
