After 4 attempts I eventually found a clean coffee mug. The sliding door to bathroom/toilet does not completely close so it's a bit embarrassing if anybody is in the kitchen opposite. I'm sure these issues can be followed up as it's a great unit with easy access to all that Glenelg has to offer. Would definitely stay again.

Generally a nice apartment and stay. Downsides -queen bed was SO firm it was difficult to sleep, there was a lot of “people” noise from a close apartment during the middle of the night on several nights and we had problems every time we left the apartment to lock the door which was SUPER annoying.

Good location and value
Fantastic location. Comfortable beds. Bathroom could do with an upgrade. If you are coming from overseas note that there is no front desk and you will need a phone to get the code for the door.

Christine

The location was great. Quick walk to Jetty Road and the beach. The room was clean although could have done with some maintenance. Bathroom ceiling had paint peeling and some parts of wall had plaster missing. The first room we had, there were issues with the blind not working. After some back and forth with the representative on the phone, we were given another room.

Just a couple of things that would not be difficult to put right namely: Blinds in bed room and lounge both needed attention Wall lights were inoperative in lounge and bedroom Tie cords on electric blanket were untied An information sheet for the microwave would have been useful.

Nicely surprised
I was nicely surprised, thought it was a great 3 star room close to Jetty Road. Loved having a code to the door and not worrying about a key and loved I didn't have to check in, paper work etc. Netflix on tv, good supplies. Quiet, but had aircon on for noise barrier I'd stay again keeping in mind its basic , clean and awesome location for $
