The apartment was very clean, and very central to box hill. The price point was good, and if you’re looking for a central place in Melbourne to stay then this may be a reasonable option.
The check in process is unduly complicated, for which I provided feedback as other reviewers also have.
We also found the springs in the bed very hard, and the couch was more like a futon design and kept slipping apart when you’d move on it. Shower pressure was good, and kitchen was adequately stocked.
I had some unpleasant communication with the host after I accidentally left an expensive work jumper there. The responsibility is indeed on the consumer to take all of their belongings, but I was upset that my jumper was thrown out by the cleaner on the same day I checked out, without giving me the option to organise collection. AirBnB have apologised and reimbursed my account, but the host declined to proceed with conversation regarding this matter.
All in all, we would not stay here again but it may be suitable to someone who is familiar with Box Hill and wants a clean, cheap place to stay for a few days.
