It would have been really good if the fire alarm did not go off twice in a row and we had to evacuate twice, which was unfortunate and out of the control of the owners - but it did not make for a very good nights sleep!

Super handy spot, just down the road from the Mall, parking was a bit tight but off street, we had the first room facing the street, (even though it was away from the street front a bit) so still a little bit of street noise, I think the other rooms would have been very quiet, as it backs onto a reserve, clean, tidy and very good size for the price (2 bed 2 storied apartment). It Worked well, and would stay again
