Other Things to Note:

SAME-DAY BOOKINGS

We have a booking lead time 1 day in order to schedule housekeeping & check-in requirements for the following day. For this reason, we cannot always guarantee a check-in time of 3pm for last-minute bookings, especially where there is a departing guest. Priority is given to guests who have booked in advance and need to be checked in.



EARLY CHECK-IN REQUESTS

Looking to start your stay a little earlier? After booking and up to the morning of your arrival, you'll have the option to purchase an early check-in for your nominated time. This is subject to approval and will depend on departing guests. If you definitely require earlier access, consider booking the night before if it is still available at this time.



LATE CHECK-OUT REQUESTS

If you'd like to savour the final moments of your stay, there are options to purchase extended check-outs. This is subject to availability.



PRIVATE SECURITY PATROL

We have a private security company that regularly patrols this property to ensure appropriate guest behaviour.



STARTER SUPPLIES

Our spaces are fully stocked to ensure you have the comforts of home during your stay. This includes toiletries, fresh towels, tea, coffee, and kitchen essentials. We also provide a limited number of dishwasher and laundry pods. We provide enough of the above items to get you started and is not intended to last for the duration of your stay. If you run out during your stay, you can reach out to our team to find nearby stores and delivery services. Alternatively, you may order additional suppliers directly from us.

For safety & hygiene reasons, we recommend our preferred Baby Hire companies for all your equipment needs during your stay. Please reach out for further information if required.

Window cleaning is the Owner's Corporation responsibility. They manage these services according to a set schedule. Unfortunately, we have no control over the state of the external windows at all and apologise in advance if you happen to book at a time where they are in a state that requires cleaning. To ensure your privacy during scheduled window cleaning, we kindly ask that blinds be drawn in areas where cleaners may be working outside.




POTENTIAL FOR NOISE

This property is in a vibrant Melbourne neighbourhood. Guests may hear city sounds including but not limited to traffic, construction, first responder sirens or nightlife.
