An excellent stay for a week.

The property is located at a very strategic location where it's near to everywhere I wanted to go. The property is comfortable and the view is very nice. Definitely worth the price

Now this is better. Everything is new. Bathroom are very clean, beds are firm and comfortable. The downside just the tv bit old, where the cursor is slow. But overall it’s a very nice stay and way better compared to the previous room I stayed.

The room is alright. The problem I had was the bathroom was super smelly. Seems the ventilation was bad. The bed is not firm anymore, and it’s very wigly which makes me cannot sleep properly. Overall is an alright, but just the bathroom and the bed that I stayed was not great at all.

Yes, unit is decent size, not a lot of amenities for a homestay studio.

The apartment itself is lovely - spacious, 3 good sized bedrooms, decently comfy beds, great view, not too far from the action…it could be 5 star…. if it were owned by a chain that cared about its guests and provided the sort of stuff you’d expect in even a budget motel. There’s a coffee machine… but no coffee (or sugar or milk) and no toaster (there were 3 sachets of instant tea… for our 5 person, 8 night stay). Bizarrely, there is no hand soap provided in the bathrooms (I asked for the above. Answer was no). The floors were super dusty and there was no way to clean them and the towels were grey and thin and smelled bad. We had to use them at the pool (no extra towels provided for the pool - I asked - they said the best they could do was swap them out the next day.. they didn’t). They did deliver a mop and broom and suggested I clean the floors myself. There’s a washing machine, so I decided to also wash the towels. Too late I realised: no dryer or clothes airer to hang wet laundry on. Also, just 2 small towel rails in the whole apartment… an apartment that’s meant to sleep 6 people! I contacted Stayla and asked if there was a clothes airer available… their answer was “no - just hang it in the living room” (instead of providing a $12 clothes airer, they’d rather have wet laundry on their fabric couches!) Quick note: If you have small kids, beware: the window in the kids room opens enough for them to fall to their death. It’s also a noisy neighbourhood. Pack earplugs!

Great location short grab ride to everything Great amenities 7eleven and bakery down stairs Kids loved it

Room could have more amenities or service. Very simple room with bath towel and that’s it.

Nice and good

You need more towels, more toilet paper, tissues and towels for the kitchen
