Guest Ratings & Reviews
The apartment is situated in a good location, just a short walk from the bustling Brunswick Street where you can find everything you need. The rooms were comfortable and clean, though I did notice some water stains on the kitchen island bench and neatly stacked alcohol bottles in a corner. The view from my room overlooked a car park and offices, which was not the most exciting. The service was decent, and they offered laundry service. The dining experience was good, especially in the morning with freshly baked croissants. Overall, it was a good modern apartment package for our visit with excellent access to shopping and dining options.
The apartment was overpriced and did not match the photos. There were some cleanliness issues with water stains and alcohol bottles, plus a view of a brick wall. However, the location was very convenient to the city and eateries. Despite the expense, it was excellent for our needs.
The apartment was nice and modern, located conveniently close to shops and cafes, ideal for those wanting to be in the heart of Fitzroy. However, it was a bit overpriced for its small and noisy setup.
