It was conveniently situated. It was clean but for a self-contained unit there were things missing - eg soap, tea towel, dish washing detergent, dish sponge, tea/coffee/sugar depleted. Reception was poorly attended and very little welcoming.

We asked for a single bed to be added to the room, which it was. However, it was placed directly in front of the air conditioner which needed to be on as it was very warm on both days of our stay. It was the only air conditioner and there was nothing in the bedroom. In the bathroom there was only 1 roll of toilet paper supplied which did not last 2 days. The grout between the tiles in the shower needed a good scrub to remove mould. The plug for the kitchen sink did not fit the plug hole. The door handle to the balcony was loose. The carpet in the lounge room had not been vacuumed properly and was evident when I moved the single bed. Generally, the room was very tired and neglected. The hotel was supposed to be manned from 10.00 AM but on both days there was nobody there at 10.00. The shower tile

The rooms are old and neglected and do not look anything like the website. We were texted late check-in details on the day of our arrival although we arrived within reception hours. I did not see Reception open the whole 5 days of my stay. The apartment had not been cleaned prior to our stay, rubbish in robe, mould in bathroom sink, thick dust on walls behind curtains. Killed three very big cockroaches over three nights. Kitchen sink plug did not fit. We ran out of toilet paper on day 3, with no spare rolls supplied in cupboard. Old stains on linen on main bed and on spare linen and blanket in cupboard. All appalling and I fought for a 50% refund which Wotif were every helpful in progressing. Do not stay at Lodestar Waterside Apartments. There is no service or attempt to maintain apartments.

Reception seems to be non-existent, with our room key and information left in a lock box despite checking in soon after 2pm. This was communicated clearly by email. We never saw anyone during our 1 week stay. Basic supplies were scarce; not enough glasses and cutlery for the number of guests, no plugs for sinks or cloths for washing dishes, a single dishwashing tablet for a 1 week stay, no broom. That might be ok if you're going to be serviced regularly, but nothing during a 6 night stay. Having no wifi is a real downside and a tv that doesn't have HDMI capability is limiting these days. The apartment needed a deep clean. Tiled floors clearly had dirt worn into the tile and grout. Walls were dirty along the beds. Beds not the worst I stayed in, but not particularly comfortable. Having a washer and dryer was convenient and the location is handy and walking distance to the river and South Perth cafes.

My stay was deeply disappointing. Upon arrival, we found the room was not as pictured. There was black dirt on the windows and a significant layer of dust throughout, which was a major issue for me as I have dust allergies. This resulted in a very uncomfortable night's sleep. On top of that, the screen door was missing from the entry, the light fixtures by the bed were loose and broken, and we even had to deal with someone else's half-eaten food in the fridge. The actual state of the property did not live up to the images or reviews previously seen.
