My stay was alright but the after hour so called cleaning/manager lady is so rude and deceiving. The room we have been given was very smelly and confined. We asked her if there is another room with the park view. "All the rooms are the same and if you want to upgrade you can go to the CityEdge accross the road they may have bigger room" she said. We decided to leave the property and called the call centre to cancel our reservation. He asked us our reason and said there are two unoccupied rooms why don't you check them out. The room has park view, was way much better than the one we were given. I asked the lady why did't offer us the room when we asked her? She couldn't say anything. Anyways i don't understand her reason as well

Good location, poorly maintained

Beds were comfortable enough. Apartment was very dated. Nothing like the photos on the website. We were offered an apartment which wasn't even at the address we booked. Front door rattled and wobbled even when locked. Bath coating was peeling, bathroom tap had broken and been replaced with a bolt, toilet roll holder was hanging on by a thread

Do NOT stay at City Edge Apartments

This is the worst place I have every stayed. We only stayed an hour and got out, it was that bad. I got other accommodation and this was so dirty and unhealthy we could of got really sick. And don't forget the bugs that started crawling all over us. When we entered the air conditioner leaked and half of the lounge room floor was wet. The kitchen stunk and had something sprayed all over the floor. The bathroom has purple stains all over the floor and the toilet had excrement on it and over it, there was toothpaste splatter all over the taps and up the walls. The place was disgusting.

Not fancy but meets basic needs.

Unit was basic, reasonably clean except for blood stains on the mattress protector under the sheet, but being a crisp white sheet it was visable through it which was a little off putting. Shower was small but great water pressure and temperature. One thing that was very impressive was how surprisingly cool the unit remained with only one a/c in main bedroom and 38 degress outside. I think with it being on ground level and all concrete walls helped. Great close location to MCG. It wasnt fancy but for the very reasonable room rate it served our purpose well to have a bed for the night and facilities to prepare our own meals while down for the cricket.
