Terrible smell in carpark area
10/10
Reviewed Sep 12, 2026Even though I had been warned that there would be noone on the premises and that I needed to check in at another venue to get the keys, I had imagined the venue that held the keys would be nearby. We ended up taking a taxi from the bus station to the check in motel (apparently a 15 minute walk) and then asked the taxi driver to take us to the place where we would be staying ( a further 40 minute walk). For us it was too far to carry luggage. This is just to inform future guests who come on foot,

Reviewed Jul 10, 2026Apartment was very clean and comfortable. Had everything we needed, and it was a great location for us. We really enjoyed our stay!
We were lucky we had our own car as to pick up the keys you had to travel a little out of the way from the actual apartment. Also our key card stopped working at around 9:30am on checkout day - we had until 10am - so I was locked out until the cleaner turned up to let me back in. I had a number to text the place where I picked up the key card, however, I didn't get a response back when we had our friends turn up with their own car and I wanted to add their rego onto the list of people staying at the apartment. We didn't want to be towed - and we weren't, but it would have been nice to have confirmation message was received.

The dishwasher was leaking for some reason. But there was a drain out in the floor for it, but this wasn't informed to us before booking. You have to pick the keys from a different location, not too far though. The front of the property and the car park is smelly due to a sewer pump house next to it.

Reviewed Mar 26, 2026It was clean and sufficient space for 2 people.
I was not particularly impressed with my experience. Having to pick up the key from a completely different location than the apartment was inconvenient. When I entered the lobby, the receptionist was assisting another guest, which I understand. However, she did not acknowledge my presence at all, with no eye contact or brief greeting, which made me feel ignored, especially given the small space where it was clear I was waiting. After a few minutes, another gentleman arrived and assisted me. He was helpful, but I found him somewhat difficult to understand, which made communication a bit challenging. There was also an unpleasant smell outside the apartment building, similar to a sewage odor. Fortunately, this was not noticeable once inside, but it meant we were unable to comfortably open the windows or doors. Additionally, the bathroom sink was very small for the size of the bathroom, and the cabinet positioned directly above it made it quite difficult to even brush your teeth comfortably. There was also significant noise during our stay. A family with young children was staying upstairs, and there was frequent running and door slamming, which made it uncomfortable for us. The apartment is located on a main street, which added to the noise, and being close to a hospital, we could also hear rescue helicopters landing. Overall, due to the noise and other issues, I would not have wanted to stay at this accommodation for longer than one night.
