The location was very convenient and the suite was unexpectedly, serviced daily. The air con was quiet at night. There was noise at night probably due to the proximity of the public bus stop but it didn't go late.

This is a budget option but the property needs a good clean. The stairs leading in both ways are filthy. The windows in the room looking to the beach were filthy so no point opening curtains. The bed/pillow was smelly. Great location but grubby. Staff not overly friendly.

We stayed in a one bedroom apartment on the ground floor. Our car park was directly outside the door. Very convenient to Jetty Rd Glenelg. Bus stop just outside the door. Only down side we could hear the guests next door inside our apartment. They were not noisy after hours but if they had been less considerate guests it might have been an inconvenience. great value for the location.

The room was large and comfortable. The bathroom had everything we needed. The staff were very friendly at check in and check out. Parking was available and easily accessed. The window sills were dirty but the rest of the room was clean. The room was on the street and very noisy, but then, it was the week before Christmas and parties, revellers and motor bikes were in full swing.
