This accommodation is great. The location is fantastic, close to the CBD as well as ANU. The dining options are very close and there is a huge variety of food.
Importantly, the accommodation was very comfortable, clean and quiet. Its great having a full kitchen, dining and lounge area, making a longer stay more comfortable than a hotel. I will definitely stay here again.

The apartment was everything that we wanted.
All amenities were there for our use.
The location was perfect for us as we parked the car and did not use it till we left. Transport is close by.
I had difficulty locating the lockbox to get the key, but that could be because I am an older person who does not expect these boxes to be in laneways.
