Smaller in Reality. Needs TLC & Maintenance
Place was really hard to find with navigation devices as visitors to Australia from the U.S. we went around the area multiple times to find where to go, that was a pain in the rain. Had to stop and ask locals where the heck it was. While the address is correct, some vital landmarks from the property owner would help. The place is on the third floor, not so easy with big luggage. The size of the apartment is smaller than the photos look, so snug is the word here. Door handle needed to be fixed on entering. It was hot and muggy outside when we arrived, so we turned the A/C lower, the unit in the bedroom started immediately dripping heavily onto the bedroom floor. Advised the landlord, and they had someone bring extra towels to put on floor. They said they called A/C repairman, but this unit dripped our entire stay, so we had to constantly swap towels and dry them on the patio.
The dining table light was burnt out, so it was hard to read while sitting under the small table. They did have a good sized couch with many pillows. The kitchen needed some basic seasonings (only had salt) and no measuring cups or spoons if you wanted to cook. Bathroom was a bit bigger than the last place we were in, so that was a plus. However, we were also visited day and night by cockroaches in the kitchen and bathroom, so pest control was lacking, a major negative. This place seemed to be lacking in some attention and care, and that affected our value perception and rating.
