“No complaints. The location was convenient, just off transport, near Woolworths, a café, and trams. Everything was perfect. Easy access to Coffee Gauge, just a five-minute walk away. The views from the classic apartment were exceptional. There was a bathtub, a roll-in shower, hair dryers, and bath sheets.”
