Well-situated, comfortable, modern, clean apartment.

I travelled to Newcastle with my parents and sister for a family event. The unit was very comfortable and clean and located in a great spot—easy walking access to cafes, restaurants, and the tram. The rooftop area was a bonus, where we watched the sunset and a cargo ship come into port. It is a 5-minute drive or 20-minute walk to pick up and drop off the keys. I definitely recommend this property.

Airkeeper are TERRIBLE

40 plus emails and many phone calls with airkeeper to get check in process right. Website says accept amex, they don't. Paid online invoice. Only small part $ deducted so had to do a second invoice, after 4 phone calls. Needed ID and selfy of ocupants, no problem and sent through. Selfy was of myself and wife, NO thry said, needed selfy of booking person only. I travel 8 to 10 weeks a year internationally have used Stayz many times. No problem. NEVER use Airkeeper agian.
