10/10 Excellent

The apartment was excellent everything was clean and spotless. We booked a one bed but had the choice of two rooms. Apartment looked like it was newly renovated, bed was comfortable and kitchen suppled with all the gadgets you would need. High speed NBN supplied and apartment even though it faced the road had no noice. Two EV charged were available on site. Would recommend if u want a nice comfortable place to stay.
