The room and location were fine. It’s a white box in a very generic highrise; it’s not cute or charming, but it’s a decent, clean place to sleep. The problem has to do with the owner and their communication. The place was clearly advertised as providing a bed and a sofabed. I was traveling with my 20-year-old son. We obviously did not want to share a bed together and we obviously needed separate keys, so that we can go in and out separately. I think most readers would agree that it is standard for paying adult guests at hotels and airbnbs to all get keys.Not so here; the owner refused to provide two keys. They also refused to provide a sheet for the sofabed. See attached screenshot. Translation of their words: We are lazy, cheap, and stubborn.

A nice apartment to stay
My sons and I enjoyed the apartment for we stay 39 days.The aprt was near to station and foods were just around the corner. However, it will be helpfull if there was basic microwave and mailbox key to check my letters.I'll consider the place for my next visit
Great location right opposite Southern Cross station and Coles supermarket with plenty of places to eat within walking distance.
Our stay was for a week and for work. Accommodation is extremely clean and well presented with fantastic building amenities.
A couple of minor negatives; no tea/coffee supplied as advertised in the description, only 1 set of keys given (me and hubby finish work at different times and the door doesn’t lock without the keys). TV not connected to an antenna, you have to download apps and log in to watch limited channels. Contacted the owners via SMS (as instructed) but never got a response.
