Pros:

The location was great in the CBD. Was a very quiet apartment with little to noise from the street or between apartments. Apartment facilities were fantastic as a home away from home. Cleanliness was at a very high standard and staff were very helpful. Was a very relaxing stay.

Cons:

The plates and bowls were in a very high cupboard on the top shelf that we couldn't reach. A small folding stool would fix that issue. The bed was a little too hard
