No windows and kept finding bugs around the entire apartment. The owner tried to make excuses but eventually we moved out a lot earlier than planned and pretty much begged for a refund. We received a partial refund but paid for more days than we actually stayed there. ##### Petra S. Stayed 18 nights in Jun 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Feb 24, 2021 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication The photos are clearly fake or heavily photoshoped. All furnitures are beat up and all walls are scratched. The windows are barred shut and the floor was dusty. The building reeks so heavy of cockroach repellent I had to wash all my belongings after I got out. The smell is so strong my nose and eyes hurt for days after I left. Despite the smell, the place is still full of cockroaches. All its residents should get a health check for staying here. It's such a piece of disgrace. I was so stunned by the terrible state of this place that I gave up the money (over 1500AUD if you ask) and booked another hotel. The management is just as terrible. They got in touch with you too late yet demanding documents plus refusing to be there in person to open the door. The agency won't pick up the call and they lie. Its surroundings weren't anywhere near clean either. You find trash piled up every corner and graffiti everywhere. Every other building on the same street looks clean and tidy yet this one tower looks like it steps right out of slums. I'm a constant overseas traveller and have stayed in a number of buildings a few hundred years old across the whole world, yet the poor state of this building is just, unnatural. All in all, it is only fair that this disgrace be removed from the website. I don't believe anyone deserves a heavy chance of cancer to witness its terrible state themselves. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 28 nights in Jan 2021
