Good location close to everything

Good place to stay central to everything in the city, surprisingly very quiet at night. Breakfast available downstairs and when it poured down with rain one morning, the reception people offered me an umbrella to borrow for the day which was really appreciated. Would stay here again

Extremely welcome city retreat with close access to Elizabeth Quay and transport hubs. Lovely walks and parks nearby. We also made good use of the pool as it was very hot. Overall quiet, clean and with everything we needed!

I would say the location is perfect especially if you do not have a vehicle. You can walk to Elizabeth Quay, Kings Park as well as most of the attractions in the CBD of Perth from the unit and we even walked as far as Optus Stadium for a AFL game. You can rent bicycles from the front desk or from About Bike Hire down by the Swan river. We enjoyed the amenities in the unit like the washer/dryer, balcony, and how the unit was well stocked with basics like shampoo, dish soap, toilet paper and such. Gym is decent, pool small but Ok, tennis court great, Jacobs Ladder just down the block if you are looking for a workout. On the down side the unit is a little dated with some definite wear and tear evident. We found the parking spot very tight even for our little Mazda CX-3. There is no BBQ on site and the restaurant in the lobby is closed even though both amenities are in the listing which disappointed us as well.

Amazingly quiet considering how central it was.

Well appointed flat, every thing one needed. Lovely little balcony looking out to trees, great to sit on for breakfast. Two stops on a free bus to city centre. Very close to King's Park - admittedly up 'Jacobs Ladder'! Annette managed to sort out a parking space for our hire car. Couldn't recommend it more highly.

Lovely apartment, nice location!

This is such a cute little apartment! It had everything needed plus more! Ms Annette is such a lovely & generous host! She made sure our stay was comfortable & went beyond expectations for our unusual circumstance! The washer & dryer are excellent!!!! The bed very nice size & comfortable! I made most of our meals in the beautiful kitchen. The leather sofa is comfy to watch TV. My favorite was having a nice bathtub to soak in at the end of the day. Very clean place from top to bottom! Oh the balcony is so pleasant to sit & listen to the lovely birds- beautiful view. I walked to the city ( about 10 min). The Elizabeth Quey Bus station is about 5 min walk, to ride any bus free to different areas of city. I would definitely use her place again while in beautiful Perth!

The property was exactly as advertised, good position,close to amenity very clean and well stocked with essentials. My stay needed a little more support from the owners than usual, whom were happy to be contacted and go the extra mile to make my stay as pleasant and low stress as possible. I wouldn't hesitate to stay again at need to be immediate to central Perth. I've no low points or complaints, thanks very much. Mike.

Great spot with everything we needed in the apartment.

We booked this last minute - the host Annette was great in guiding us on a couple of ideas as to what we could do, but after walking out the front door, there was so much around, the hardest bit was trying to work out what to do first! I loved Elizabeth Quay and my partner enjoyed Kings Park, and the Swan River. We are already planning our return trip and we will be staying at Perth City Retreat!
