Very clean stylish apartment with everything you need including location right on Darby street with a multitude of restaurants and cafes at your doorstep. Harris Farms down the road for all your supplies if you feel like cooking. Room had a view over Darby street and security at night for access. I would definitely recommend a stay here

Location in the center of Newcastle, close to restaurants and facilities. Parking was very good and safe, but was an additional cost. Staff were friendly and helpful, gym was good. Room size was large and thet kitchen and dining area were very good. Bedroom was large and bed comfortable, a mirror in the bedroom would have been good. We enjoyed our stay and highly recommend.

Cooks Hill is a beautiful location a short walk to the city and unlimited pubs, restaurants, and cafes right at our doorstep. The accommodation is clean, new and all the facilities you need. The rooms are quiet, almost sound proof and if you like a sleep in you can close off the light totally. All the facilities you need with a kitchenette. Definitely the location is the biggest plus. Newcastle is the coolest and most underrated city in Aust.

The apartments are in a very central location, with lots of eateries and shops at its doorsteps. It can get a bit noisy at night but will become quiet by 12 midnight.
