Firstly, the heading is misleading. It is not a New York loft - it is simply a studio apartment with timber exposed ceilings. The apartment is really well located and surrounded by great cafes and restaurants. It is an easy walk to the City Centre and close to many of Sydney’s major tourist destinations.
The apartment’s only redeeming features besides the location were: nice hot shower, great air conditioning and it was generally well appointed. Problems we identified and photographed:
1.The bathroom has no shelving for toiletries bags.
2. The shower recess needs to re-grouted and there was mould and peeling paint.
3. The rubber strip on the shower door was mouldy.
4. The ventilation fans were chocked with dust.
5. The floors are starting to lift in places.
6. There were 8 holes in the l/hand roller blind.
7. The l/hand window lever was locked so the l/hand window couldn’t be opened.
8. The TV was tiny and they don’t provide free to air TV channels. They provide Netflix but no other streaming channels.
9. Of the three glass doors that seperate the living from the bedroom, only one was easy to move. We were too scared to force it unless it came off the runners/rails.
10. The bed was small if you’re used to sleeping in a King Size bed.
