Overall a positive stay in Merrylands. The place was spacious and comfortable. Centrally located with a shopping centre and various food places/cafes within walking distance. Check-in was slightly challenging due to a list of instructions with multiple Dropbox links of photos and using an app as a key to unlock the door. However, the hosts were extremely responsive and helpful if you had any concerns or needed to change anything. 5 stars for communication. Cleanliness of apartment was okay, we did notice it had a strange smell though (maybe from the cleaning products?). Only other issue we had was the fridge was no longer working after using the washing machine/dryer. We only noticed this on the day we were checking out. I’m guessing the power short circuited whilst using the dryer. Otherwise it was great for a weekend away. Thanks to Ed for the stay and being a good host.
