Overall, an ok stay. Some pros and cons:
Pros
- good communication with host, allowed for early check-in on the day. If you get there early and before the 3pm check in, there's nowhere secure to store your bags. Very grateful she allowed me to check in early.
- very good location, close to all cafes and woolworths
- decent enough place, but definitely not as spacious or nice as shown in photos.
- security at the front; need fob key to get in.
- apartment is right next to the elevator which has pros and cons.
- extra security at your front door with bar gates and lock.
- lovely view from 5th floor.
- all amenities and appliances as described.
cons:
- shower door poorly built so water spills out
- dated furniture, couch not comfy. the wardrobe doors were hard to open, poorly constructed. didn't use it.
- noisy outside at night. bring earplugs.
- Food smell from downstairs restaurant that lingered which was really bothersome.
rating 6.5/10 (smell was the downfall for me)
