Very convenient. Could do with more cleaning. Cabinets with junk, mouldy chopping boards.
Two bedrooms, 5 beds plus sofabed. But only 4 cups and glasses, inadequate cutlery. Does not have to be expensive, basic will do.
TV is ancient. Take a streamer.

Good location. Room needs some TLC and a good clean. Pull out couch bed for kids had a hard beam right through the middle of it. Would have been more comfortable sleeping on the floor. Happy that we only stayed one night.

The apartment is in a great location, with easy access to public transport and plenty of good restaurants nearby. The apartment itself is a bit old, and the beds weren’t very comfortable. Overall, it’s a decent option for a short stay if you’re mainly looking for convenience and location rather than luxury.

Plenty of places to eat out. Nice staff. Solid kitchen we did not use.
Dirty utensils with hardened dirt, mouldy chopping boards, dirt on walls, no hand towels, no scrubber to hand wash dishes.
And why candle holders on table without candles? Should candles be even encouraged? Should the gas stove be removed and replaced with portable induction hobs?
But cleanliness. Costs nothing. And made me a bit uneasy. Will carry disinfecting wipes when I travel next. This time we left in a rush.
Has a lot of wasted potential

Great location and good value.
Apartment has just about everything needed for a comfortable stay.
Could do with a few more of the basics, eg T towels, washing up liquid, clothes etc.
Nice to have a small outside balcony area.
Excellent shower.
Modern microwave and washing machine.
Front entrance closed late at night so to gain entry to the building you need to use the side entrance on the right hand side.

Was a weird way to check in, but so close to trains and trams and all the attractions we needed to see
Abysmal service from check in staff. First time I’ve ever been given the bird and sworn at by staff when I queried why the deposit was 500% of the room cost. This is after being told to be “patient” while waiting on the street for 30mins to be able to check in. You check in a cafe. There is no reception. This is not disclosed by Expedia. And then Sakura tack on more conditions after the booking is secured. Also not disclosed at the time of booking, but relied upon to deny a refund. A 6pm curfew to check in? Absolute disgrace - stay away at all costs. This is as dodgy as it gets.

Good that it was close to public transport.
Double bed was a very small double bed. Good for 1 person. Flat screen tv couldn’t even get channel 7 cause it was so old. Balcony is enough for 1 person to stand and that’s it. Pool was ok temp. Not heated. Pull out couch my kid said was so uncomfortable. Good size fridge/freezer. Microwave would’ve been good if there was and microwave safe dishes/bowls. Dodgy table and chairs that I wouldn’t be eating on. Too unstable. Sorry but won’t be staying here again for that price.

The location of the apartment was very good (near Southern Cross Station. However there were a few issues with the Apartment. The toilet seat was broken and wobbly, the overhead Fluro Light above the stove kept falling out (had just been taped up) and the Kitchen Utensils were VERY basic and cheap. The apartment was clean on Arrival and quiet during our 2 night stay.
