Don’t do it 🚨Warning!
Nothing.
They advertise a nice apartment with sliding glass doors, decent furnishings and a balcony and then they give you a completely different apartment on the ground floor with tiny jail-style windows that don’t open. The apartments very dark (again nothing like photos) and very loud, especially at night you can hear everything and everyone walking and driving past. It’s a complete con, please do not risk staying here unless you’re happy with paying a large amount of money for a jail style apartment. The only commonality to the list is the square footage, nothing else is the same at all! Check other reviews the also mention this!! Don’t do it

Over all it was very close to St Vincent’s Private Hospitalwhere my husband was staying!
We enjoyed our stay in unit 2. The unit was very clean, spacious and well equipped and maintained. It was walking distance to restaurants, supermarkets, cafes and St Vincent’s Private Hospital.
Our biggest issue was the wifi and the help desk! (The login and password for the wifi was incorrect) I called for assistance for 3 days (up to 6 calls per day) leaving voice messages and sending emails and nobody would respond. I finally got through on day 4 and asked for a manager because it was unacceptable and our stay was for 10 nights so we needed wifi for the laptop (and TV) immediately. Finally we got help. The other issue was there are no blockout blinds so it is extremely bright at night.
