Guest Reviews

• chris (2/5): Great view but horrible staff to deal with and didnt think bond would be refunded - Great view and very quiet The conditions said Bond to be paid via credit card, then it changed it to bank deposit. After checkout was told I would get BOND refund but would be a week before it would be paid! They stopped communication through booking.com (I wanted a record of the communication) and I had to message them email via text to get BOND repaid. ...they demanded deposit immediately but won't refund for a week after refund approved. Spoiled the stay. NO coffee making facilities. A simple plunger would suffice! Food left in the apartment from last guests....yuc! They gave me an address to collect the keys and then changed it at the last minute. On check out they said to leave keys on table...then emailed again to take keys back to the corner shop. Hopeless!!
• Basma (1/5): Bed servic and shit not clean - Nothing except the location Every thing not clean the team not responsible and not organised and they church me for one night extra and I haven’t received the service for that night the appartments was not checked from the team as the lights some was broken smoking small in the appartments and not safe for kids to live in even the balcony was not safe for kids as it is very dangerous for babies and children to stay on if I could give 0 start or lease I would do and I ask to speak to the manager regarding this issue but no response from him as will Wich makes my holiday shit and bad me my family didn’t enjoy our stay because of the service and plus we were not allowed to use the car park and the swimming pools and very expensive for the things that I paid not deserves so shame on booking.com to least something like that as I always do my booking through them I am requesting my money back as I am not happy at all and I will put very big complaint about this matter and plus my son in law has stack at the lift which he got so scared and nervous and shocked he was able to help him self as again the response for help it wasn’t there as an emergency I don’t recommend this place for any one special families with kids and I will not let is go before I will get all my money back other was I will keep boating about the very bad service that I face in the first time off my live as I always book and holidays no n of them did what this people did shit service.

• Bradley (10/5): Easy, clean and great location - Easy to deal with Nothing, it was good
• Scott (8/5): -
• BAO YI (7/5): -
• David (9/5): -
• Jonathan (7/5): - Comfy bed. Good location. Host was friendly. Clean space. Rare to find a place with 2 bathrooms for the price. We were there for 3 nights but we were only supplied with 1 toilet roll per bathroom. Needed to buy extra toilet roll for the rest of the trip. Also needed to buy tissue boxes, and there were no bins for the kitchen or living room so we had to get something for all our rubbish. Also, there is a drainage issue with the sink in the ensuite.

• kevin (9/5): Was clean proximity was good price was good - Close to the city . Value for money The locking key for unit played up , but the problem was fixed straight away But not sure about the looking system for the unit
• Justin (10/5): - Excellent location… hassle free… excellent facilities… overall a super enjoyable experience… highly recommended
• Daniel (6/5): Great location, very poor apartment for the cost. - - location - ease of access - - very dirty - as if not cleaned for months. - garbage under beds - stained bedding - no tea towels - no basics - dirty dishes - dishwasher filter full if food - literally stuff came out dirtier - soap scum build up on bathroom wall - floor not cleaned - mold in bathroom fan -
• Dave (8/5): reat location, host was eager to help to make my stay as enjoyable as possible. - location and view were outstanding. food and shops were very close and easily accessible. close to trams and public transport. central to the city. Nothing, it was great.
• Norhayati (9/5): - Good facilities, clean, comfortable bedding. Strategic location just next to Melbourne Central near tram station. Owner was friendly
• Susan (6/5): -
• Tammie (7/5): Overall, we enjoyed our stay very good pricing for the accommodation - The apartment was modern small and compact perfect location Not enough towels, sheets and could use a clean
• gaehl (5/5): -
• Alyssa (1/5): Really dissatisfied - I liked absolutely nothing about the property. The rooms were horrible and the staff were not helping in the slightest. I didn’t like anything about it because the rooms were gross. She had the showers I had mould in the bottom. You had stains on the carpets and on the sheets of the bed and on the walls and the front patio and balcony.
• Amy (7/5): Great location + view from the apartment. Host did not respond to any contact made to him. - View was beautiful from our apartment - 60th floor The dishwasher was not emptied/ cleaned and a foul stench came from this. One key between 3 people was not feasible. I contacted the host on both occasions to make him aware but no response was received.
• Jia Ying (6/5): -
• Hayley (1/5): DO NOT STAY HERE - SCAM - The location was convenient. Everything about this apartment was horrible. My family and I were staying in Melbourne for the Australian Open which we do every year, and this was by far the worst experience we have ever had. The entire apartment was extremely dusty and unclean. There was a broken chair at the dining table, the dishwasher had such a foul smell emitting from it due to dirty water that had been left pooling at the bottom from the previous tenants, there were used towels in one of the bedrooms left hanging on the back of the door which had hairs on it, the bathroom was so dirty that there was mould in the grout all over the shower, the bins were covered in spores and stains, and the carpet had visible dirt marks all over it. I had to go to the local Aldi and buy cleaning products to disinfect the kitchen and bathrooms just to use these ammenities. The apartment was also extremely noisy at night. All the window seals were missing, making the windows rattle loudly due to the high winds. I reached out to the owners regarding the uncleanliness of the apartment and asked for a refund as my family and I had to check out the morning after we checked in to find another source of accomodation. We paid over $2000 for the 3 nights, but had to leave the next day and pay for different accomodation, due to the conditions of the apartment. The owners did not take liability nor responsibility for the dirtiness of the bathrooms, bedrooms, and kitchen. I tried to call both numbers listed and each time failed to get an answer. The best I received was an AI generated response. I do not recommend staying in this apartment (5706), as it is not up to the standards displayed on Booking.com. I am also aware that people have commented similar experiences to mine, therefore the apartment owners are clearly only motivated to make a quick dollar with total disregard to their customer's expectations.
• YUQING (8/5): Nice view good location, service and cleanliness need to be improved - View outside Space to improve on cleaning, it was dusty, kitchen area oily. Check-in experience is one of the worst, I sent message one day before check-in, no reply. Check-in day, we had to find the place nearby to take the key first, and the address was wrong, with 12 hours flight and luggages, the remote contact person wasn’t helping to find the location but keeping asking to pay the deposit (without giving us the paying link). He told us no deposit we can’t check-in, but we prefer to see someone from the place first. After all they told us the contact person is temporary wasn’t able to lead us in the right way. We were one and a half hour earlier than the check-in time, after all the mess, the owner was asking $80 to get in earlier even the room was available, how kind? Lots of rules before check out, otherwise penalty will be charged, like clean the kitchen, throw away all the waste, all furnitures need to be same place. We understand and always respect the place, keep the best way to maintain it, but those rules always follow on a clear penalty amount which make it feels unfriendly.
• Davidson (1/5): -
• Jason (6/5): - convenient location, good views, good natural lighting. Dish washer was broken. Windows and balcony door was not sealed, so the wind was making a lot of noise with outside air seeping inside. Shower water would leak to toilet area and the entire area would be wet. Not enough hand towels provided.
• Shijiang (5/5): 总体还可以。 - 对于我们的需求，房东能够帮助解决。 卫生间排气扇噪音很大，无法单独关闭，需要关上总电源，晚上很不方便。blanket有污渍。
• Karen (4/5): - Location. Accessibility Helpful front counter staff Easy key pickup and drop off. No cutlery to eat our meals. No dishwahing liquid or tabs for dishwasher or plug for sink. Bag of old rubbish left in kitchen cupbosrd under sink. Surfaces were dirty and dusty. The cot did not fit in any bedroom and needed to move a bed over to fit the cot in a carpeted area and not in the kitchen where it was situated on arrival.
• Claire Marie (10/5): -
• YIRAN (10/5): -
• David (7/5): Comfortable and Clean - TV Remote wouldn't work
• Judith (7/5): Good location. We would stay again now we know what we are expecting. I would not pay more than $200/night for this - Apartment 5706- Ezymart key pickup/ drop off -(24/7), A’Beckett St Location, Key & Lift access Fob, Price, Air Conditioner in Lounge only , Pedestal fans in all bedrooms plus lounge room, Furniture and Furnishings- Bedding, Bath towels, Cushions, TV & Wifi, Crockery & Utensils-plates, cups, glasses, Cutlery-knives, forks, spoons, chop sticks, cooking items. Windows don’t seal properly and is VERY NOISY. The entire place needs a SERIOUS HEAVY CLEAN- the property owners should ( in my opinion) pay for a PROPER INTENSIVE DEEP CLEAN -as the grime is significantly more than a quick linen change and toilet seat wipe can do. We cleaned the dirty TV to use it- bathroom & shower cubicle floors so we could walk in there, - cleaned the dishwasher filter and removed all the glass fragments blocking the drain - and still couldn’t get it to complete the cycle. I was irritated by the grime& lost patience and didn’t clean anything we didn’t use. The photo of the dryer filter shows how long since ANYONE- cleaner or user has checked it before or after use . OMG…. Reported safety issues- Faulty kitchen power point, Faulty Main Bathroom door lock, Faulty Bedroom door lock, Faulty Entry door lock. I sent all of this information to property contact on Day 2 of our stay.
• Emma (8/5): -
• Conan (10/5): -
• James (10/5): Great communication from Ken, key collection from another location was no issue, only 100m away. Would stay again no pro - Great location and view of the city Nothing. It was fine.

• Katherine Thuy Hong (8/5): - Location was perfect, close to melbourne central, lots of options for food and drinks. Also close to other shopping complexes like emporium, qv and Bourke Street mall - tram stops and train stops nearby Host was amazing, very responsive. Cleanliness was not up to scratch. All kitchenware was dirty, floors dusty. We found broken glass and a lighter in one bedroom. Socks and other clothing items in another. Detergent provided for laundry was empty/used, we had to go out and buy our own.

• Agnes (8/5): Value for money for stay in CBD. - Good location in the CBD and accessible to shops and amenities. Good value for money. Location is good. But can be also a little noisy at night.
• Cindy (9/5): Nest Apartments @ Empire - Absolutely phenomenal location, the views were amazing. The host had very thorough and active communication to ensure our stay was good. They accomodated to our request of having enough towels for all 5 of us, and the beds were super comfy (they had extra doonas in the closet that were great for cold nights). They provided free wifi that was easy to connect to, and all the necessary amenities needed in an apartment (washing machine, microwave, kettle, hair dryer, etc.) Although the apartment was a bit small, there was enough space to relax and even have brekkie in the morning. It's very worth it for the price paid! The apartment had quite a few marks and scuffs on the walls, ceiling, and doors prior to us settling in. It was quite dusty (air quality wise), so we had to have windows open as much as possible to get dust out. The bathroom had little space to place toiletries/clothes and could get very slippery as there wasn't a bath mat - we had to use a mop in between showers to dry the floor. Unfortunately, we couldn't find any extra toilet rolls, laundry detergent, and rubbish bags, so we had to purchase them ourselves if we needed them. Honestly, most of these things weren't too much of a deal breaker, and at the price we paid, it was still a great stay, and we would come again.
• Thomas (10/5): -
• Kaye (9/5): A stunning outlook over Melbourne from the 57th floor. Great location with easy access - The location was exceptional and the views from the 57th floor were amazing! Great, clear communication from the host at all steps of the stay. We had a few little problems that the host sorted quickly for us- great service! We appreciated the small things like access to wifi was easy, easy key pick up, and the extra bed using the couch had been made up for us. Was missing plates/glasses, but the host had these replaced after we messaged.

• Karen (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment was very nice. Was close to everything we needed. Could of had a little bit more essentials as we had to buy our own
• Jennifer (3/5): Good location. Nothing else. - Very central location. Easy to get to tram. They wanted to charge $80 for an early check in - which we declined as we'd only be 45 minutes early. But the key was not available by check on time (3pm) - they allowed us to drop our bags and said they needed another hour to clean. Despite this, there was still bits of rubbish and food on the floor and cigarette ash inside between the rug and the balcony door. No tea towels provided. No spare bin bags. Door could not be locked without the key. Only 1 key provided. Weird that the bathroom had a blue light. Apartment smelled of pot - although, this is likely from one of the neighbours. Owner would only communicate through texts and not answer calls.

• David (8/5): Good location, clean, basic but did the job. - Basic apartment but more than suitable for a night out. Beds were good and comfortable. Location was excellent.
