G3 Apartment

The room didn’t quite seem dirty, but it wasn’t up to motel standard. One bed had just the sprung base, with no top mattress, and one of the bath towels was stained.

The room itself was very clean, had everything we needed, and there were plenty of good food options nearby. The bed, though, was like sleeping on the floor. I prefer a firm mattress because my back is sensitive, but this one went way beyond firm. After a 12-hour construction shift, I pulled the sheets back just to check there was actually a mattress and not a concrete slab. It was a real letdown. Neither of us slept well. We reckon we got no more than four hours across six or seven hours in bed. On day two we decided to work a 14-hour day, drive two hours home, and give up the second night so we could sleep in our own beds. We’d booked here because it was ten minutes closer to the worksite than the city, where we usually stay. From now on we’ll drive that extra ten minutes and use a chain hotel with comfortable beds.

Felt like a home away from home, and the location was great, close to Westfield Garden City Mall. The balcony wasn’t clean, though, and there weren’t enough cooking utensils to serve more than three people. Otherwise, everything was okay.

At this price, these rooms don’t feel worthwhile or suitable for what you get. I think it’s too expensive.
