My family of three (including a four year old) stayed at Tim's from 16 to 26 November 2018. The apartment has many "pluses":
- It was spacious, clean, modern and comfortable with a well equipped kitchen, state-of-the-art facilities, and well-stocked amenties.
- There were many cafes and restaurants within walking distance (notable mention is Proud Mary for the excellent coffee) as well as a good hair salon (Chester and Morgan; look for Danni).
- Walking distance to the tram stops (tram 86 takes you straight to Bourke St Mall) and Woolsworth for all your grocery needs.
- Tim was a gracious and thoughtful host (allowing us to check in early and check out late due to our flights, and also making sure the apartment was "child safe" by storing the "krew" steel artwork letters as they could fall if bumped ), and a prompt and good communicator (answering our queries on the airconditioning and dryer, among others).
Minus
- There is only one minus during our 10 nights stay here and that is we had very inconsiderate neighbours in the unit just above ours START playing loud thumping music at around 2.30 a.m. of 25 November as it was apparently someone's 40th birthday cum house warming. We had asked them if they could please lower the volume as it was keeping my family awake. They appeared apologetic but still kept the music and volume up. We were kept awake the entire night/dawn. They only lowered the volume after we went out a second time at nearly 6 a.m. to tell them off, but the thumping music continued all the way till 8.30 a.m. when we went out the third time to request that they turn off the music as we really needed some sleep. This happened on our second last night here and marred our otherwise close to perfect stay at Tim's.
We had informed Tim about this and was told that he had sent a letter to the managing agent of the property regarding this incident. We are satisfied with Tim's handling of this issue and we hope the above "minus" is just a once-off as we would love to come back and stay at Tim's due to the many pluses.
