Northlodge Central City Apartments

Frances was very friendly and informative

All was great

Beautiful old building, heaps of travel magazines, and brochures just outside of room for anyone travelling, and the hostess, who was an older lady, she was lovely. Room was clean, bed not the greatest, could feel the springs in mattress, only 2 pillows on the queen, would've liked 2 more, and an extra blanket would've been nice, as doona was very thin. TV aerial was frayed, so TV reception was a bit dodgy. Space between toilet, shower, and sinks not very wide, a bigger person would find it hard using the toilet. Very limited toiletries, and no milk for coffee. IGA very close tho, for anything we needed, and in the deli section, has a great variety of ready made salads, rolls, and meals to microwave in room. Maccas, and a nice park are across the road, park has heaps of pigeons, and a few homeless that were no trouble. Bus stop right out the front of accomodation. We had only booked the one night, so overall, for the price, it was ok.

Easy walk to city centre and train station. Bus stop across the road and IGA a couple of minutes walk away. VERY tiny ensuite but water hot and plentiful. Large room but tired furnishings. If you just want a comfortable, convenient place to stay then I'd recommend this one.

Property served a purpose and room and bathroom were tidy and clean. Old Victorian property and area is somewhat unsafe with people sleeping on the pavement. Close to city not that i went there. Text contact with operator was very good. No milk in fridge and really didn't know why there a fridge in the room, particularly the size of it.

Initially I was a Late check in Prospector Train Delay, lock box given by Email, but on Arrival Hard to Figure how to Enter Property. So after checking with my Wife how do I contact anyone involved with Entry a Couple on the Balcony Stated you should have two keys One to Enter and you Room three Doors from the front door.Big Room self Contained with shower and toilet . Room no 2, I soon learnt how to work the Aircon Heater, First night Air conditioner although temperature on 30 degrees blowing Cold air, Night Two out of Three I Finally figured that Air conditioner blowing Warm air Night 2.I Did have a Number to txt with the Person who txt lock box. But was Frustrating to not Having a Go to Person. Number Parking what a Nightmare for Parking in the Area,Found a City of Perth Parking for $15 for 12 hours then Cat and Mouse Parking close to the Apartment but must Shift by 6 am and Find Parking for the Morning and Day.

Checkout time was too early.

Do not stay in this accommodation. Terrible service, dirty and smelly, damp bathroom with peeling paint. Bed sheets are old and worn, no blankets or proper duvet for the bed. The rug on the carpet had food remnants that had not been cleaned up. Key was not left in the secure box as promised, for a late check in. I had to call the owner three times before I got access. Francis had no memory of my booking despite me speaking with her the day before confirming my arrival time and key collection details. Not recommended at all.

Positives: Good facilities and nice touches... Older place but well maintained with very good basics. Close to IGA supermarket and bus stops. Pleasant office personnel and close to walking distance to CBD and pubs and restaurants. Area for improvement: Site office is not commonly open or manned. Late night and early morning check ins push a loud doorbell instead of using the apartment outside lock box function... Meaning if your rooms close to the entrance you are woken up at all hours of night and early morn by patrons that are unaware of the lockbox function. Had one knucklehead pushing the door bell from 12:30 to 1am and another at 7am for 15 mins. Sort out your instructions so your patrons are not kept awake or expected to go open doors to idiots at nights and early morns. Not fun at all... Perhaps improve ypur lockbox instruction or man the office fulltime. Your front door lock is sticky and takes effort to open
