What was good:
* Fantastic location, a very short walk to Southbank and a short walk to the city / Flinders St / National Gallery.
* In-unit washer & dryer (separate appliances, and on the smaller side).
* Short walk to IGA grocery store & 7/11.
* The blackout curtains are great.
What was not so good:
* Storage is very challenging for 2 people and with more luggage. The bedroom closet is tiny and there isn't much additional storage beyond that.
* The apartments are quite dated. The signs of age are evident.
* Further to the above, having booked a spa suite, the spa jets didn't work. This was a bit disappointing but not the end of the world. On the upside, the spa was a good size.
* Underground parking is quite expensive at 35 AUD per night. Street parking would be very challenging around Southbank.
The main selling point of this apartment is that it is one of few at the price point in the Southbank area to have an in-unit washer/dryer, which is a great utility for longer stays.
All in all, a solid option, if not perfect. I'd probably be more likely to stay again if I were traveling with less luggage in future.
