Spacious comfortable apartment in Perfect location
The location was absolutely perfect for our family.
Extremely close to the light rail and a 10 minute walk to Pyrmont Bridge.
The apartment was spacious, comfortable with a lovely balcony, and the pool and spa facilities were excellent.
There are a few items, however, that really need maintenance within the apartment so hopefully management attend to those.

Property had everything I had wanted - kitchen, separate bedrooms and indoor pool. Some wear and tear - mainly the bathroom vanities but to be expected from a place that is not brand new. I was surprised at how spacious it was - the photos don't do it justice. We were not on top of each other like at a regular hotel. Thanks for a fantastic holiday. Will seriously consider staying here on our next trip to Sydney.

Short stay in Pyrmont.
Good basic layout but NEEDS a bit of maintenance. The room is tired. Aircon not much good.. bluetooth sound system had to be plugged in and speaker cables missing. Even the wall clock needed a battery!.. No rubbish basket in main bathroom . shower floods the floor. ..all little things but easily fixed. Good location though
The location was great for our family to walk or catch transportation to anywhere we wanted to go. The neighborhoods amenities was also very good from grocery store to many restaurants

Location suited my needs. But the unit needs general repairs. Removal of excess older items that have since been replaced. It urgently needs a thorough bond style clean.
A lovely apartment in a great location, perfect for the city and Darling Harbour. Highly recommended

Communication with host was like getting a root canal. There is a TV but no channels, so useless for us. No WIFI, even if in unit listing. No small milk in fridge to get you started. The apartment was otherwise nice.
Just 90 metres from Darling Habour and from there a short walk to the CBD. lots of lovely restaurants right on the doorstep. Large apartment, full kitchen and laundry and comfy beds. The place is clean but has seen better days. One of the showers was not working when we were there, but that was okay as there were two showers.
This property was so dirty and full of mold, my family and I turned right around and booked a hotel instead of staying here. Upon entering, we could visually see filth on nearly every wall of the living space. Dirty brown drips all on the first wall upon entering the property and just overall dirty walls in every room. There were visible roach traps in every corner, some with bugs dead inside, some without. The laundry room is full of mold, and as it is right by the entrance, it is the first smell that hits you when walking into the property. Both bathrooms also have black mold growing around the showers, the tiles and the ceilings. There were broken, dirty fans piled in the corner of the living space. There were stains on one of the twin beds, and well as on the bed in the master bedroom. The kitchen area was the only remotely clear space on the property, save for the bug traps. I immediately contacted the host and while they did get back to me quickly there was nothing to be done- the property needs mold abatement and that isn’t something that can be quickly fixed. Unsurprisingly, the host declined to refund our payment. The host claimed that they checked in with their cleaning company, and the company said that mold was previously taken care of- so they are fully aware that there is a mold problem and are advertising this property anyway. My honest review of this property is that it is in abyssal condition and no one should ever stay there.

Great location but property needs maintenance
Amazing location and very quiet considering where it is situated. Great choice of restaurants near by and a large woolworths directly across the street. Check-in was really easy and the pool and gym are great once you find it through the carpark basement. The apartment itself is large and the kitchen has all you need, rooms were simple but very comfortable, beds and linen great! The bathrooms need some serious work. Mould growing at the top of the ensuite shower and the bathroom cabinet doors fell off with one hitting my sons foot. The grout on the bathrooms floors was filthy and looked like it had never been cleaned. The hot water tap in the main bathroom was broken and we had to hold the inner centre to turn it on and off as the tap just spun in our hand. No extra comforts provided such as umbrellas and extra blankets and no information book with recommended places to visit or eat out. Wonderful easy walking to Darling Harbour but the lack of general maintenance of the apartment let it down.

Handy location
Overall a nice stay. 1 toilet was blocked , not enough cutlery, squeaky single beds.
No running water on 1 day due to maintenance that we weren't told about. Need more blankets.
Fantastic location, so close to Darling Harbour
Great location. Close to everything.
Was surprised that the place was not very clean, because I had carefully read prior reviews. We left it in much better shape than we found it.
The apartment is in a suburb of Sydney walking distance from the CBD and very close to public transport and many amenities. The neighbourhood was great and it worked well as a base for all of our outings around the city. The apartment itself was comfortable with two good bedrooms and a nice living room. The AC was useful as was the access to a swimming pool. The place did have a couple of less good quirks like the small ledge leading to the kitchen which we tripped on several times and the lack of markings on the oven which made cooking a voyage of discovery but these issues were minor. The people on site who managed the property were really helpful. We would happily stay in the same place if we were to return to Sydney and would recommend it to anyone else visting Sydney.
Modern spacious 2brm/2bth unit with all facilities for both short and long stay...Woolworths handy across the road. Brms face road and can sometimes be a little noisey but acceptable. Only disappointment was the cleanliness of the unit on arrival...only a very very superficial clean however would stay there again!
Lovely big apartment with plenty of room for four people. Two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Grocery store on the other side of the street and train station as well. It is possible to walk across the peninsula to Darling Harbour to spare transport time. Get an Opal card for transport. Tap on and off at every ride - also tap off if you a changing means of transport (or a 'fine' will be taken automatically from the card). Nice manual sent before arrival and key found in box outside building made things easy. An extra set of keys is possible to have on request beforehand. Garbage disposal in garbage chute: Walk through the door to the left of the door to the apartment and along the corridor - but have a helper to keep the door open (locks when closing from the other side).

A great place with great transport accessibility
The place is really nice, clean, and near to both tram and bus station. Also, it’s a couple minutes away from the Sydney Fish Market!
This property provides easy access to the city's busses, ferries and, even, light rail system. The Fish Market (great retail as well as wholesale opportunities) is within 5 minutes walk as is the STAR casino with its excellent restaurants. The apartment building is very well maintained with door person in attendance. Good heating and a/c and excellent showers. Be aware, though, that the apt is quite sparsely stocked. Happily, there were packets of coffee and a small container of milk provided but zero condiments, serviettes, kitchen toweling. Happily, there is a supermarket just up the street, open long hours, so you can purchase everything you need

Had a great time!
Spent a week here to visit my son. Convenient to bus and light rail, walking distance to Fish Market, and plenty of coffee shops and restaurants in neighborhood. Had a neighborhood feel, not really a tourist area. Only downside was there was only one set of keys, and they are required to enter building, so had to be sure to coordinate coming and going to make sure everyone could get back into building. Really nice place to stay, would definitely recommend.
