Brunswick cave

The location was excellent & beds comfortable. Cleanliness was average, I had to wipe out the bedside drawers before I put clothes in. The apartment was very dark & gloomy & depressing. The saving grace was the location & the park nearby.

Perfect home away from home

Perfect position- handy to transport, shops, restaurants and a number of parks for walking our dog. Very comfortable, clean and quiet. Has everything you need. We’d definitely book here again- wanted to stay longer.

The property was nice the location was great for access to public transport. We found it almost impossible to park our car in the supplied area. A Neighbour was kind enough to swap his parking space with us. We di notice a smell in the rug in the lounge room that smelt like dog urine. It should be cleaned professionally to remove it. We could notice it every time we entered the room, but it would become less noticeable the long you remained in the building. Overall we were very happy with our stay.

Great home, great spot

What a spot, in the heart of the action, walking distance to anywhere and a short tram ride to the city. Will stay again on our next trip to Melbourne

Convenient Location and Comfortable beds

In general this is a nice apartment but without front screen door or fly screens it lacks fresh air and air flow but does have air conditioners. The kitchen cupboards need to be emptied out, everything cleaned properly, decluttered and packed away neatly. Noisy bathroom exhaust fan that is sensor activated by movement in hallway is annoying when trying to sleep. Great park down the road for exercise or running your dog. Barkly Square just a short walk away.

Great location and great property

We really enjoyed the convenience of being in Brunswick, close proximity to fabulous Sydney rd and Lygon st - food heaven. Did not use the car as property is really convenient to trams but quiet. Property has everything one could want (home away from home) - will definitely stay here in the future.
