Coastal Ridge Apartments

Coastal Ridge Apartments

8/10 Good
"Clean room, great area - with the gardens very close by. Loved the beautiful spa bath too. Easy parking too. I didn’t realise though that I would have to haul my heavy suitcase up 2 flights of stairs and it is the first time I have ever seen a sign in the kitchen stating that you will be charged a $50 fine if you don’t wash your dish. I always do my dishes but I would hate to think about how “some” guests washing habits are. Was a little bit off-putting to see that… felt quite unfriendly."
