Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Some guests found maintenance issues — A few reviews mentioned outdated fixtures, like a low shower head, and occasional smoke odours from the laundromat.
  • Basic amenities sometimes had to be requested — At least one guest felt they had to ask for essentials repeatedly, which detracted from the stay.
  • Potential for noise from the highway — The property sits on Great Eastern Highway, a main road, which could bring traffic noise – though reviews don't explicitly mention it.

“A pleasant stay in a spacious apartment that felt like home. Handy location with a supermarket and restaurants within walking distance, plus easy public transport. The pool was refreshing during the February heat, and the surprise airport transfer was a lovely touch.”

“Really appreciated the two nights here. The location was marvellous for Perth – right next to Optus Stadium, the Flag motor inn restaurant, and the city centre. Also about 3 km from the Ash Wednesday Memorial.”
