The apartment was exactly as advertised - in a very public place on Acland Street, but as it was facing out back, we couldn't hear any street/bar noise at all. We loved the location - two minutes from bars, tram, Luna Park, the beach... And couldn't find any comparable apartment for a similar price in the area.
The apartment was spotlessly clean and had nice touches - lots of storage/hanging space, nice towels, shower gel, lovely sofa with sunny spots during the day, a washing machine which came in handy, and a Nutribullet! The bedroom doesn't have a separate window, but the balcony door (which faces a wall) lets in sunlight and air.
Sam was very responsive and very generous in letting us keep our suitcases in the house after check-out.
Our check-in would have been seamless, but we misread the instructions (our fault, but could perhaps be a bit clearer).
We would stay here again any time!
