A Wonderful Stay
An amazing stay! We were long term visitors, staying over a month. We had a fantastic view over the little reservoir nearby, and got to see all sorts of flora and fauna. The two bedroom apartment was well suited for our stay, with Botany Downs Town Centre a short walk away we had everything we needed. The staff were very friendly, and super helpful. Can’t recommend this place enough.

Little bit noisy from main road. Otherwise i enjoy my stay.
Very nice area. The place was good to stay at the only thing was when you run out of toilet paper you need to buy your own because they dont supply anything extra

Nice place
Great apartments for a family getaway. Unfortunately the weather was rain most of the time so we didn't get the chance to take a swim. We also requested two king beds but only one room was set up with king the other was left as two singles.

We had a very smooth check-in, despite arriving around 3 a.m. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The property was fully equipped and comfortable. Everything was perfect and exceeded our expectations. I will recommend it.

We stayed a month at this property. Our first room was a two story with worn furniture and main level A/C and fans were not sufficient to cool the room at night.
The manager moved us to a different room that was much nicer with A/C.
Went to use the washing machine and it stuck the whole apartment out for the whole time it was very gross

No cleaning provided, the service only includes linen change, no additional rubbish bin bags after the initial 2 provided, even though we extended our stay from 2 weeks to 5 weeks in total, you are expected to buy everything on your own ,even toilet cleaner as nothing was provided
Overall very good but bedroom has no heater - luckily, it wasn't too cold during our stay

Security tab access did not work once on our 20 day stay. We had to use a manual key from street access, and therefore we had to park in the street. The manager reprogrammed the security tab but it continually did not work. Wifi kept dropping out at least twice a day and had to reset our devices when this happened.
When we checked out and handed the keys in the manager did not even ask if we enjoyed our stay. We were there for 20 nights!
This is our first and last time staying here under the new management and have been coming here since 2012 when is was owned and run by Waldorf, who were always very friendly.
