Good value, well equipped apartment in a good position for exploring Newcastle/ Merewether and coast
Pros:

Very spacious, simply furnished, well equipped and everything worked.
Two balconies a treat.

Cons:

There were minor elements of cleaning that could have been better.
Never understand when no wash basin plugs are provided - I’m sure I end up using more hot water !

Pros:

Cons:

Air con was quite noisy in bedroom so unable to use during the warm night. Surrounding doors of others rooms are very loud especially late and night early morning. Barking dog in property beside was annoying during the day but thankfully no barking during the night.

Lovely fresh apartment, clean and well appointed.
Pros:

Booked the one bedroom apartment. Lovely fresh apartment with good kitchen and lounge facilities. Lovely walk in shower. Apartment was clean and included a balcony.

Cons:

The front of the property was a little noisy, though it was a Saturday night, and a few bars are located close by. Once in the apartment, however, this was not noticeable.
