The location was excellent. The apartment was comfortable and practical. There was lots of little things like basic condiments and milk in the fridge that made my first day easier. Comfy bed, excellent bathroom facilities and overall just a great apartment to stay in. Close to the CBD but also local shops. I will be checking dates for my next visit over in 2026.
