Great position within easy walking distance to Salamanca and the CBD. The apartment is well equipped and has a washing machine and dryer. The let down was the noise. The walls are thin and we were woken on and off through the night through to the early hours of the morning with party goers. The heat pump was very loud so we opted for the extra blanket.

The staff were welcoming and it's a great location. However, the rooms could use a facelift, the aircon sounded like a jet engine when you turned it on and the tv upstairs didn't work. I asked a couple of times for it to be fixed but nothing happened. Disappointed given the price per night.
