Reviews

  • Darren from Australia (9/10)

    Nice area, comfortable with a good view. Beds were comfortable. We were able to comfortably have 4 of us in the apartment and still have our own separate spaces when needed. The location is great for a short stay where you aren't exactly staying in that area for long periods of time.

  • Rachael from Australia (6/10)

    The location was very good, close to the Docklands and all on the free tram line. Walking distance to Flinders too. There was one free parking space provided in a safe car park. The view was fabulous! The open plan kitchen was great. There were most of the basics there with shampoo, body wash etc. The beds were comfortable.

  • Charmigeo from Australia (8/10)

    Supurch location! So close to Southern Cross station, trams, bus terminal in the same street. Views are amazing. Coles and outlet shopping moments away. This apartment was perfect for our family. We didn't spend a great deal of time in the apartment as it was conveniently located for us to walk to Festival Hall for a concert. An array of cafes and bars surround the area. Great little place next to the lobby for food and drinks, including Gelato! The apartment is exactly as pictured. Extremely clean, offering simple styled decor. This is not a hotel, so BYO tea, coffee, milk, water. Appliances are suitable to prepare hot beverages and simple meals. Convenient sized fridge to house cold foods and drinks. The bonus for us was the second bathroom. This meant I didn't need to share with my adult daughters. We found the apartment to be perfect in every way for our 1 night stay. The air-conditioning worked extremely well given the size of the apartment, too. The car spot is right next to the lift, which we also found handy. It was easy and convenient for our stay. A tip, only one lift (left-hand side), takes you to the parking area if you have a car. Thanks for the opportunity to stay in your apartment! We loved it.
