Professionally managed by Canbnb. Elegantly crafted apartment in the heart of New Acton offers comfort and style on the 10th floor of the award-winning and eco-friendly \`Nishi\` building.

There is ample wardrobe space for your luggage, including hangers for your clothing (cupboard on both sides of the bed as at the front entry way). There is also a pedestal fan provided for your convenience. Canberra can be pretty cold in our winter months and our heater is energy efficient which means it can take some time to heat up! Please make sure that the switch on the wall labeled ‘heat’ is turned on and you turn the knob on the heater to the desired heat setting (0-5). It may take a few hours to reach the desired setting! Please be mindful of the use of appliances. As much as possible, do not use appliances all at the same as it will cause the power to trip and possible error in usage. :) BATHROOM: The bathroom includes a heated towel rail and is stocked with towels, toilet paper, body wash and shampoo.

Dec 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, location Disliked: Check-in #### Disappointing This should have been a great experience in one of our fav buildings. Great view but sadly you can’t enjoy it from the balcony because of traffic noise. Quiet inside when doors are tightly shut though. Be aware that the bedroom is at the entry to the apartment and the bed legs stick out reducing the already minimal entry passage to barely 30 cm clear, which means you regularly stub your toes in entering or leaving the unit. We had to sleep with the light on to avoid the bed legs when we got up during the night. Not comfortable! You need to be strong enough to heave packages or luggage over a double bed to get them into the kitchen. Checkout was a nightmare and delayed our departure by 90 mins. You have to go to a locker in a nearby convenience store - which wasn’t open on time. I could go on about problems with the apartment but what was most alienating was that all communication went via some business outside Stayz with an anonymous person - until the end. ##### Gayle A.
