Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
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.

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.

Dean

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
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.
