This apartment is not expensive and relatively large. It was clean, although a bit smelly (a mixture of fresh paint and cooking smell). This disappeared after some while.
The owner also takes care of the apartment, there is no doubt; however, it’s generally old and far less modern and stylish then so many other places in Fremantle.
I stayed in several different AirBnBs in Fremantle and comparing this apartment with the others it wouldn’t be fair to rate 5 stars here, even for the low price charged. The living experience is just not “perfect” although a really good deal if you are 3 persons (whereof 1 sleeps on a bed in the living room).
The location isn’t excellent but still acceptable (15 min walk to Frei markets). Accessibility to South Street by car is quick and easy. It’s a quite area.
It is a bigger apartment complex and the entrance is in a dark corner of it. It didn’t feel so safe although it actually was. But I wouldn’t want to access this place alone as a woman.
Most affecting my daily routine was the small hot water tank. You got appr. 6 minutes hot water - then it’s cold. I have no clue how 2 or even 3 people should take a hot shower in a row. As other reviewers said already: the tank is just too small! And I thought every morning: wtf!
The furnitures and equipment has had better times and is a bit outdated. The window blinds all fall down. So either open or close completely.
As for me, I wouldn’t book this place again. Check Gillian’s other apartments, e. g. on Russel Rd which is 10 times nicer and worth to spend a few bugs more.
