We stayed 6 weeks. The roof top, spa, basement lap pool and the location of the complex are the highlights. The apartment itself is SMALL but the facilities listed above counter this issue. Coffee shop at bottom of building, close by coffee shops and other shops just across the road, the local bike Yarra bike trail & the basement car parking all great (although one ramp very squeezy to get down to car spot).
The kitchen could do with a few more pots and plates but plenty utensils. Great to have washing machine and dryer. The main bed very comfortable. The lounge/bed arrangement ok perhaps for one night but after that we had to buy a mattress topper (vital to make the second bed able to offer any comfort). If the lounge-bed is going to be used for a number of nights I’d suggest an armchair is provided as an added piece of furniture as there was nowhere to sit other than the dining table. Also a full length mirror would make a difference. Stove and fridge good. Good building security. Lifts reliable. Note: we were there in Summer making the roof top fabulous. Without any overhead cover, though, this area might not be useable at all in freezing or rainy weather. In Summer, it’s fantastic. Proximity to Rathdowne, Lygon, Nicholson, Sydney Rd all terrific. Closest supermarket a bit of a walk to Barkly Square so we used the IGA at the base of the building quite a bit. It’s open early hours to late night 7 days and has a bottle shop included. A little bit of noise on weekend mornings from kids and dogs in other apartments but weekdays were quiet. I’d definitely return to this apartment.
