Negative Reviews

Parking is often a problem

Although free parking is offered, spaces are limited and are allocated on a first come first served basis. A fair amount of previous guests haven’t been able to secure a space and have had to park elsewhere, often at a cost and a fair distance from the apartments.

Surroundings can be noisy

Feedback for these Hobart serviced apartments reveals that guests find the surroundings fairly noisy. The problem seems to originate more from neighbouring apartments than outside on the street. Guests have found the soundproofing between apartments very poor.

Occasional maintenance issues

While generally enjoying a comfortable stay, guests have reported occasional maintenance issues. Problems are not described as severe but you may find these apartments are dated in appearance and suffer from a lack of maintenance, particularly in the bathrooms.
