The apartment was well presented and stocked. I wasnt keen on the new checkin system on a tablet at reception. The process took much longer than it should of, required multiple t&c contions to be accepted with little or no explanation. Having to have my personal data available for others to see at reception wasn't ideal either. I also didnt like that, although i was advised that the apartment was ready for checkin earlier than 3pm, i could only get access by paying an additional $20!

Good location close to shops, eateries and light rail, apartment was modern with nice interior, secure parking at rear of building, only downside was dishwasher not working in my apartment and a loose hinge in one of the cupboard doors, not really a big deal but when you’re paying good money to stay there you do expect better
