Lovely natural light and quiet street, but the hot water system needed two repairs. Agent was responsive after the second issue.

Great layout and nearby cafes. Some delays in bond return; keep everything documented.

Great views, but the lift was down twice during our lease. Overall good value.

Issues with mould were addressed slowly. Rent was fair, but maintenance was inconsistent.

Walkable to the beach. Parking was tight, but the landlord handled repairs quickly.
