- Brian (7/5): Good - I forgot my powerbank at the facility and they claimed not to have found it. Absolute thieves .
Facility has no air conditioning, had to open the window however the noise from the generator across the road was unbearable.The couch was damaged on the left side.
- Anele (8/5): Very good - The kind host. Nothing
- Billy (7/5): Good - Nice spacious apartment with a comfortable bed. Only a short walk to Rosebank shopping mall. Furniture needs a bit of an upgrade.
- Anele (8/5): A very good and comfortable stay with an amazing host. -
- Rashaad (2/5): Very poor - very disappointed with our experience at this apartment. we contacted the host before booking to ensure that there is a working aircon. the apartment lists that there was aircon but nothing was visible in the pictures. the host then confirmed that there was. upon arrival, the apartment was extremely hot with very little ventilation, making it very difficult to even breath at night. the aircon didn't work as it just blew hot air constantly. we notified the host the very same evening (friday). the host responded that someone would be coming to check the aircon the next day, but all they brought was a fan with a very short cord. fan couldn't be used as there were no plug points in room that could accommodate the fan. upon arrival we also found a cockroach in the fridge draw. the next morning when waking up, there were several roaches on the lounge floor which was extremely disgusting. we have stayed at the Apex apartments many times in the past but this is the very last time we make use of this apartment.
- Anisha (10/5): Exceptional -
- Erick (10/5): Clean, central and looks exactly as advertised - Location and cleanliness Nothing
- Tshiamo (10/5): Perfect stay - Location All was good
- Carmel (7/5): Pleasant and convenient. - Location, apartment size and aesthetics. WiFi worked really well. The damp smell in the bathroom, and in the corridor adjacent to the bathroom. This may be a building issue and not the apartment. Broken window handles make windows difficult to open and close. Crockery and glassware chipped. The couch and dining room chairs were uncomfortable. The room was quite hot at night. No air conditioner. The portable air cooler blows cool air and releases very hot air simultaneously.

- Ntsako (8/5): Enjoyed my stay at Ulo! - Cleanliness. Cute and cosy apartment. Would definitely come back . Staff responds quickly and helpful. Loved the checkout time provided :) They don’t have enough cutlery such as bigger plates only side plates and bowls which was quite disappointing as we had to eat in a small saucer . Huge inconvenience . It would be great if you could add a spatula for breakfast cooking and a chopping board for cooking in general. Cleaner should wash dishes better as the cutlery was dirty , I had to rewash them before utilising .

The apartment is amazing with everything working. Noisemakers are always there.
The bed was not made up with clean sheets as they were dirty.
We were told it’s private so the staff would not help if we needed assistance.

- Karis (8/5): Very good - The apartment was beautiful. Great space. Good wifi. The location is beautiful. It isn't my first time staying at the apex. In fact it has become a second home. The apartment was true to its pictures. There is literally every appliance you need. A stocked coffee station. A heater. Extra blankets. I was with a friend. The security kept knocking and saying we talk too loud. No music no TV. He kept coming. I asked if there was a complaint he said no but he can hear us. It made me feel unsafe. He threatened to turn our lights off. There was no Party no noise he wanted us to give him something.
- Cynthia (7/5): Good - The apartment is cold,, false advertisement of air conditioning .
At least they must get a heater.
