Very nice place. The place was neat and tidy and looked how the pictures depicted the unit.
Good things:
- 2 bedrooms, each with queen size bed, plus 2 bathrooms (one being an ensuite)
- All basic utilities included, towels, hand wash, shampoo/conditioner, body wash
- Location is great, close to train and tram stations, convenience stores, restaurants, coffee place right out the front as well as supermarkets. Also not too far to walk to Melbourne city central area
Things to keep in mind:
- Noise. The apartment is on the 7th floor, but noise from the street can be heard or perhaps from other people in that apartment or apartments nearby. This is not a problem unique to this apartment, but just be aware there will most likely be random noise throughout the entire night. I was able to use ear plugs to counteract the noise a little and could not hear majority of the noise.
- TV. For people who will use the TV for more than just casual use, the TV only comes with free to air, there was no DVD player as far as I could tell and you cannot connect to it wirelessly to play netflix/stan etc. If you wish to bring something to connect to the TV, the TV stand is bolted to the ground and cannot be moved so you will need to bring an extension cable and powerboard to use from the bedroom closest to the TV. This was not an issue for our group as we barely use the TV, but for others that may want to use it for netflix etc just a heads up
- power points. If you have more than one person staying in each bedroom power points may be an issue as there may possibly be only one available in each room. I can only confirm for the master bedroom, I did not stay in the 2nd bedroom. We had 3 people staying so we managed to make do, but if multiple people want to charge things at once in the bedroom you will need to bring your own powerboard most likely. There are two power points available in the bathrooms as well as in the kitchen if being close to what your charging is not an issue.
- No Parking included. This was not an issue for us as we did not have a car, and it not uncommon for the city, but you will need to organise your own parking if you want to stay here and have a car with you.
