Beautiful waterfront stay!
Pros:

What a stunning location when staying in Williamstown!! Right at the waters edge and directly in the centre of town!! Such beautiful views right at your doorstep and everything just a small stroll away.

Cons:

Only minor setback was the Restaurant joined to the property was open late on the weekends and once the guests left at closing there was a little bit of noise heard outside the room - it didn’t last long though once they moved along.

Ideal base, clean, lots of amenities in the area. Chilled vibe.
Pros:

Usually stay in CBD or in town for trips. Decided to stay out of town and highly recommend. Great transport links with the train station a 5-minute walk away and 20-minutes or so into the City. Lots of food options for dining out and there are supermarkets a short walk - 5-6 minutes away. Nice area to go for an early morning run along the coast. Different vibe from the City, very chilled but lots to do if you choose to. Apartment was clean, spacious, with good shower and lounge area. Bed was comfortable and it was nice to have a dining table to sit at beside the kitchen area. Highly recommend as a base. There is a pub with a restaurant right next door which has a busy schedule even in the colder months.

Nice stay in Williamstown would probably not stay here again.
Pros:

Great location. Friendly staff. Nearby secure parking on the property. Heaps of dining options nearby as well as onsiye. Close to public transport.

Cons:

Aged facilities. Main door to room jammed. Toilet seat was falling off when we checked in. This was inadequately repaired after we reported it.
