Nice apartment but not enough towels for a 2 night stay, only 1 room key which is not ideal if trying to use facilities. One lift out of order whole stay and then the other broke down on day of departure, receptionist didn’t care and we had to carry luggage down 6 floors. Thanks to the tradies who helped my wife down the last two floors

The location was perfect. 1 block from the beach and the tram stop is close by. Shopping and restaurants are within 4 min either direction by tram or walkable. The room was clean and kitchen had everything I needed to cook and eat in the room. I enjoyed the spa, pool and sauna after long walks. The gym has basics. The grounds were well maintained and has a grill and nice sitting area. I had a little trouble checking in as the directions went to my junk mail but the property manager, who is lovely, was able to help. This is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed at!

Staff were very friendly and helpful. The apartment was really nice and had almost everything you could need for your stay (except no iron or ironing board). I would highly recommend staying here and I would definitely stay here again.

The apartment is in need of some TLC as it is quite run down. The bathroom in particular was in pretty poor condition and definitely needs updating. It was quite noisy from the upstairs apartment. Having said that, it had everything we needed and was in a good location.

Pictures on the web were false to what we got, broken items were found, dishes were not washed from previous customers, entire table and bedside tables were dirty, it said we had a queen bed and bedhead but we got a double with no bedhead and there was no couch like in the advertisements, there was mold on all curtains and bathroom blinds, the bathroom near the pool was collapsing and had a massive hole and plaster all on the floor....would not recommend

Average accommodation, great amenities in the property but apartment barely was set up, no amenities like a basic wine glass or cooking utensils, not really an apartment. The bed was comfy though and clean, bathroom large but smelled funny. The tv didn't work and no side table where the power point was. Little things but for the money I'd stay in a hotel.
