Good Value! Convenient City Central 2BR Apt

It was sufficient for a short stay. The booking information was very misleading. This is an airbnb Positive: The beds were comfortable. The bathroom had everything we needed. Negative: The instructions to get the keys were difficult. The secrecy about the procedure, and only supplying the information 24 hours beforehand was strange and unwelcome. Why? And then all the information we had to provide, plus payment up front. And then having to sign a very one-sided contract after having paid. The constract safeguards the property completely - all liability on our side. The toilet in the bathroom wasn't flushed after last use when we arrived.. The wash basin was cracked. The seating furniture is due for replacement. Glasses and cutlery could have been cleaned better. The TV had constatnt freeze frames. The normal DTV channels were unavailable, and the available channels weren't worth watching. The wifi was abominable - it just kept failing/switching off,. The problem is because the connection to internet was through 4G - too weak - and overused. And why? An upgrade to NBN is (almost) free of charge.

Fantastic location & very affordable Positive: Location was fab! Very comfortable & well appointed. Pool & steam room was amazing Negative: Step into the bath was very high. Lots of roadworks outside the door so noisy 24/7

Positive: A clean apartment with a well-equipped kitchen and bathroom. We were able to cook and do our laundry during our stay. We had a great time staying there. The host, Olivia, responded to our questions promptly. Negative: Before check-in, I had to fill out an online form, upload a photo of my passport, and a $500 deposit was charged to my credit card. The deposit was successfully refunded after my stay. However, since I stayed for nearly a week, the deposit authorization expired after 7 days and was charged again, which confused and worried me. There have been serious scams using Booking.com’s messaging system, where scammers sent a link through a hotel’s official Booking.com account claiming that my credit card payment had failed, asking me to reconfirm my credit card information. Because of this, I feel very insecure about uploading such private information online.

Excellent communication and fantastic location Positive: It was a really easy process to collect and return the keys. The communication was brilliant and the location was perfect! So central! Brilliant for the price! Negative: I didn't realise how small the second bedroom was but it worked fine so not a huge draw back in my situation.

Positive: Suitable for family
