'Habitat' - Premium Southbank Apt. with a View
Summary:
Contemporary design meets urban chic in Southbank's innovative 'Habitat' building and this 14th floor apartment with a panoramic bay vista commands attention within it.
This 2 bdrm + 1 bath apt is a superb offering, featuring floor-to-ceiling double glazed windows framing a magnificent view over South Melbourne to Port Phillip Bay.
Located in the heart of Melbourne's cultural precinct, a whisper from South Melbourne Market, Crown Entertainment Complex, waterside dining, bars, shopping and more!
The Space:
Walk into your modern open living area with generous living combined with 2 spacious bedrooms which are separated by a large bathroom. Large windows provide plenty of natural light and assure you enjoy the panoramic views over South Melbourne.
The light-filled interior features a sleek stone and stainless steel kitchen with quality Smeg appliances, a gas cooktop, a mirrored splashback, excellent storage and a refined undermount sink.
An open-plan lounge-dining space enjoys the view and 2 carpeted bedrooms share a sparkling bathroom with floor-to-ceiling tiles.
A European laundry, reverse cycle split system air-conditioner, roller blinds, and warming timber floors under foot finish off this wonderful home base in central Southbank.
This property is perfectly positioned for the inner city professionals.

Disappointing Stay: Unclean, Unexpected Charges, and Poor Maintenance
My recent stay at 'Habitat' -Premium Southbank Apartment was very disappointing. The place was nothing like what was advertised on the website. Upon arrival, I noticed the floors were extremely dirty, with visible dirt and stains, indicating that proper cleaning had not been done. To make matters worse, I found hair on the bed, which was both unhygienic and unacceptable. The bathroom had a broken mirror crudely patched up with masking tape, which looked unprofessional and unsafe.Additionally, I was shocked to be charged a surprise 500 holding deposit not listed anywhere on the booking site. The overall cleanliness, maintenance, and transparency were far below expectations.
