Quiet and convenient location, staff is helpful and friendly. Underground paking was nice as it hailed slightly on that day. Microwave came in handy. Shower walls were mouldy, tap spout was not secured, A/C remote holder keeps falling down due to multiple unsuccessful repairs (big holes to secure scerws). 3 out 5 in overall.

On the good side - Bed comfortable and the shower had good water pressure. Reasonably well equipped kitchen. Not so good - Room smelt of cigarettes and because the flyscreens had holes in them, couldn't open windows to air the room. Live Christmas Beetles all over floor both days (we were warned about this). Only couch was very uncomfortable, Couldn't open main curtain in unit because looking straight into covered public sitting area, so very dark. TV remote fixed with a bandaid (indicative of need for serious updating needed). Lift broken down so had to walk with bags up the stairs.

Generally the stay was OK. The only thing I would comment was a rather strong smell. Could not really tell where it came from ( nor what it was ), but it was definitely there. Both in the room and in the lift ( even stronger ).
