The location was great. It was safe and secure. It had a magnificent view....mostly.
However, we found the apartment to be barely liveable. One leg of the bed was broken - we had to bend it back into place to support the bed. The apartment was poorly appointed: no pot to boil pasta, minimal cutlery, a dirty sponge by the sink, no bedside tables, no lamps, and no trash baskets. Then there was the matter of it being a greenhouse. Facing north, it was blazing hot. There was one portable air conditioner in one bedroom, but no ventilation in the other. Additionally, although two standing fans were provided, neither were able to hold their heads up. There were very few outlets in the apartment, so despite the two extention power strips that were provided, placing the fans anywhere useful was next to impossible.
Only the curtains in the bedrooms blocked sunlight. The rest of the apartment baked.
Part of the view was the ANZ bank building which blocked much of the view to the east.
