This place is advertised as ‘luxury’ and that is a big stretch. The location is fantastic – right on Hastings Street. The place is clean. But, luxury is a 5 star and this is more like a strong 3 or a weak 4. We stayed here for 5 nights in a 3 bedroom apartment with one 9 year old child. The place is super spacious and nicely furnished. The staff is friendly. The not so positive is the NOISE. The 2 first nights we barely slept. The information we had received prior indicated some building work/noise (the building next door had scaffolding), that wasn’t the issue at all. Insulation of the place is non-existence and the 2 first nights there were extremely loud screaming at 1am, 2am, and so on…. Not sure where the advertised security was… It would also be good to know that the garbage truck stops right outside your balcony at 5:30am – every day! And, sometimes again at 6:30am for good measure… Also, someone thought it was a good idea to use a leaf blower at 4am along Hastings Street…. Worst is probably the gate to the building site next door. When it opens and closes (starts at 5:20am), it sounds like someone is standing right next to you and slams an oven tray into the tiled floor… Not sure who opens and closes it as we didn’t see any work taking place there. Bedlinen and towels are OK. Not great quality, but clean. Unless you stay 7 days, you will not get clean sheets or towels. There is a washing machine and dryer, but no little detergent satchels left for you. You get 2 toilet rolls, that’s it! There are no paper towels, but a kitchen towel. You need to clean and tidy the place before you leave. The bathrooms have no fan, so it does get steamy and it smells a bit mouldy. The parking is a tight fit, but totally fine, although the gate was stuck open when we were there, so security minimal. The pool is a plunge pool and just in front of the reception, so you feel like a fish in a goldfish bowl that people are looking at. The kitchen is well stocked with plates etc. and the kitchenette nice and easy to use. Overall, I would say this is a 3-star accommodation and I would recommend it for the location, but you need to be prepared for not sleeping much!
