Harbourside Apartment

Sub par for price. Positive: Location Negative: Toilet ran all night long. No matter how many times I hit the button to try reset it. Kitchen sink only had one plug and it couldn’t hold water to wash dishes. Every tap in the apartment leaked, when windy the whole place howled. Second last day the key to gate would not work leaving us trapped in carpark, once asking some stranger to let us out so we could make our appointment (reason why booking) Called customer service only to be told to leave rental car out front of building if the key wouldn’t work. Place was clean.

Positive: Unit was a clean and the location is great. You can walk to the train, cafes and sights like Bathers beach and the prison. Easy to access and the communication about how to check in etc was great. Negative: This was not safe for children. There was yelling and screaming, swearing, banging at all hours of the night from other residents, really frightening for kids or anyone really. I wouldn't stay there again.

We have stayed in this building previously and those apartments were well presented and of a high standard. This apartment was grossly misrepresented by the online photographs. The furnishings are of very low standard and chipped and shabby. The kitchen utensils barely adequate (knife set, utensils, crockery, no cutting board, etc. Cupboards and shelving internally were badly stained and not lined. With few power points available, power boards and extension cables lay tangled throughout the apartment (Kitchen, Living and Bedroom areas). With only 4 rolls of toilet paper provided, we purchased our own toilet paper and other essentials to use through our almost 3 week stay. Parquetry flooring tiles are loose. The curtain to the Living Room is ill fitting and a joke. Could not recommend this property to anyone whilst in this state of presentation.
