Liked: Cleanliness
The unit was very roomy and in an ideal area, close for us to walk to a lot of places. The apartment is very dated but clean. The kitchen could have had a few more supplies included. We did ask the manager if he could supply a few things which he did promptly. The noise level from residents across the road was very loud most nights. The noise was ongoing all night on a lot of nights and this alone is why we would not stay at Marrakai again. Unfortunate because there are a lot of positives with the apartment, even though a good update of the unit would be great to!

Great place, outdated but still extremely comfortable. Only problems were ants everywhere, despite ensuring we cleaned up after ourselves, the stovetop fan was broken and didn't work. Also, lack of cooking utensils and tea towels. For the price though, it was great and got the job done! Air con was fantastic and would probably stay again.

Property was in a great convenient location, amazing views, unit was tired and outdated, broken furniture, dirty dishes from previous occupants, not a real friendly duty manager, seemed an effort for him to say hello let alone be helpful with anything

The property is not right in the town centre so there are not many restaurants or shops, though you can easily walk to these if it's not too hot. The apartment was very comfortable and we had fantastic views from the top floor. There was quite a lot of traffic noise, however, and the apartment was very old and really needs a refurb and new furniture. The old dishwasher broke down during our stay and a shower head needed replacing. It was very clean, though, and the beds were really comfortable, with lovely, good quality linen. Overall, I would definitely stay again as it was good value for money, comfortable, and the manager, Jason, was very attentive.

The staff at the Marrakai were wonderful - friendly and extremely helpful. The room, while older, was clean and spacious. Woolworths and Mall are within walking distance, as is the Waterfront and wharf (although it was extremely hot in the middle of the day). We also had an amazing view!
