This property is the absolute best spot on the Esplanade. Easy walk in either direction for shops and transport. Buses tricky at this time whilst new tram rail works are done. I have stayed here many times. This time I was very disappointed with the apartment cleanliness. Lots of little bits needed attention. The stonework around the lovely pool needs some attention too. However, I will return!

Luxury in the 70s maybe the 80s - have stayed in better hostels half the price, similar views. The place is pretty grubby, lots of scuffs and dings, sandy leather couches. Luxury included the view only, needed more toilet paper? 50c at the lobby. Bathrooms are old, so old, so dated. No air con - the place isn’t air conned throughout so it’s just sticky business Less than average place

I really liked the beds the shower and bathroom and the kitchen. Comfy beds, big clean shower with good water pressure and temperature control. Kitchen was very well equipped with quality utensils, everything worked properly and a bonus was the electric leather recliners in the lounge room which were wonderful. The only downside was there was no air conditioning and is was very hot weather when we were there. Pool was also great. Would return in cooler months. Overall very good.

I booked a room with air-conditioning, only to arrive and find out that the bedrooms did not have air-conditioning, only the main living area. The bedrooms were extremely hot, making it difficult for us to sleep, especially with a young child. I felt very deceived at the time of booking as this was not specified in the advertising of this property on expedia. If I had of known I would have booked else where. It definitely made the stay not pleasurable but rather extremely uncomfortable!!

We got a premium ocean view apartment and im glad we did. It was a good size and seemed to have been renovated. It had everything we needed although compared to other places we stayed they didnt provide as much dish soap etc...so we are glad we bought the leftover packets with us from where we stayed previously because it would have been silly to have to buy everything for one week. Although the property itself, entrance , pool area etc could use an upgrade the pool area was perfect for the kids and really nice to swim in. It would have been nice if the people on the front desk had been friendlier, it did feel like they resented being asked simple questions but we didnt let it worry us.

View was amazing and great location. Unfortunately the room looked nothing like photos presented online. Extremely dated and many cosmetic issues with apartment including stained carpets and rust. Nice heated pool but closed by 7 pm which was surprising. Loved the views from the apartment but would never have booked if photos had been remotely accurate. I understand each apartment is different but there has to be some semblance of accurate representation in what you’re selling.
