Apartment is lovely, very modern, like a show-home. However it is in a building that is only 7 months old and thus does not feel like the typical "Airbnb" experience. The apartment is not equipped as a home, it is like a holiday apart/hotel. This is a business as the host has a number or apartments on this floor not an Airbnb house rental.
It is beautiful, very clean, crisp but has no "personality" even the smallest of things like, cooking material were very sparse. 1 pot, 1 pan, no condiments.
Although the view from the balcony is the building scaffolding of the adjacent building. NO view.
Was ok for 3 days I could not have stay any longer.
It was for 4 adults and there is only 1 x 2 seater sofa so don't know how it can be advertised to accommodate 6 people.
In my opinion this is not a Airbnb rental. Its a rental business.
When we travel we like to experience the vibe of the city from the hosts home and this did not happen. Don't know how its adversed on Airbnb.
When we arrived (2 hrs early) the host offered to store our luggage till the apartment was ready. When we arrive back our luggage was in a room which the door was wide open and host no where to be seen. All our valuables were left exposed with other guests wandering around the floor and in and out of the room. Not good as we had laptops with us, fortunately all was ok.
The building is ultra modern, filled with young modern people, Its in the CBD so that reflects residents.
The pool and gym as advertise are not open yet in the building. There is no gym equipment in the fitness room, When I asked I was told "Was being renovated" However we were given access to the gym and pool in the adjacent building, access through the carpark on the 2nd floor.
I was confused how I had got it so wrong as I have travel extensively through Airbnb and after re-reading all the reviews I think the reviews are from friends of the host as many of them are from Melbourne.
If your visiting the CBD on business and plan to eat out, this would be a perfect rental.
