Don't waste your money here!

Kim was quick to accept payment and confirm the booking but when I notified her of arriving and that items were missing or broken I did not receive a reply.

The apartment was central for sure - so central that every car driving by the roundabout and accelerating up the hill could be heard easily.

The apartment didn't have a curtain on the double fronted doors that open to the street so there was zero privacy in the main living areas. The shade curtain over the windows during the day obscured some vision but at night you could see through those as well from outside. As this was a special weekend away it dampened the whole experience. I notified Kim about the missing curtain but no reply. Other curtains in the apartment either didn't work or were dirty. The beauty of these fantastic curtains means that when the sun rises the complete apartment is is daylight - wonderful if you planned on having a relaxing sleep in.... hahaha NOT!

There were cobwebs on the roof near the light fittings.

There were blown globes in the down lights.

The couch had a broken leg and was propped up with bits of chopped up wood.

The apartment is actually in a large block of apartments (approx 20) which means there is people in and out the driveway all the time which is just to the right of the balcony area.

The smell from the rubbish disposal area was putrid and this is right below the doors that open up from the main lounge room. Imagine having all those apartments discarding last nights bottles and take away food from their drinking sessions and putting it right below the apartment you are in. The noise from the bottles is noisy and frustrating as well as the smell from the bins a bit horrible.

In all this first air bnb experience was pretty average - At the same price a nice hotel room we should have never gone to this place.

I have waited for over a week before writing this review to see if Kim was going to contact us about our stay but it was in fact this auto air bnb email that found me first. The experience still is bad even after we left and are back at work.

Many ways for the host to improve. Above list would be a good starting point. We stayed here for 3 nights.

Advice - be careful if considering this apartment as other properties reviews are mixed in with this property giving a false indication
