The quoted address, 28 Russell St , is deceptive as the entry is around the corner. Taxi was confused in the dark. The limited hours of the receptionist was inconvenient so access to apartment key confusing as entrance is very dark.

While the apartment looked spacious and clean, the air freshener was overpowering and bed and lounge were of poor quality. This apartment would be hard pressed to rate 3 star if inspected by the ratings committee- certainly not luxurious as promoted. Great location, though.

The hotel was very well located and clean. Only issue is that for a 6 day stay we only had one set of towels (they did give one extra on day 4)

Gym facilities? False advertising.
I stayed here for a week long work trip. As per the photos there was a gym on premises so I brought my gear. Upon asking about the location of the gym they told me it was across the street and that you require an annual membership. Coming from Canada, and bringing extra items for this case I was not impressed. The rest of the stay was good, no complaints. However, the lack of transparency while booking was not ideal.

We had a few things that didn’t work like the Foxtel and the washing machine door that wouldn’t open. Reception were prompt in getting them fixed. The bed was not comfortable at all and some furnishings in particular the lounge could do with replacing

Nice apartment in a great location.
Clean, comfortable and well appointed apartment in a great location for easy walk South Bank, West End, CBD and transport. Plenty of great food options nearby. While we didn’t really use it, it was great to have the option of a full kitchen and laundry. Would recommend for anyone going to a show at QPAC, visiting the musuems, GOMA or events at the exhibition centre. Would definitely stay there again.

A short stay to attend a celebration at Southbank. The location was very suitable and the free Parking was one reason for our choice. We were looking forward to enjoying the rooftop and Spa but it was closed due to repainting of the building.

Noisy, Cold and Uncomfortable
We stayed in 2 bed 2 bath which sounded good but our apartment was next to a 4 way intersection and we could hear vehicles passing, dogs barking and traffic lights pinging constantly, it was worse at night. The bed was hard and uncomfortable with only a thin duvet in winter. I had to put a blanket on top but was still cold. There was a reverse air con unit in each room but none of them worked so we couldn’t even heat the rooms. We tried asking about it but we were told there wasn’t much they could do about it. Our room was unserviced so we had to re-use towels which again wouldn’t have been an issue but the bathroom was so cold that our towels weren’t drying properly. They also would not store our luggage past 12pm so we had to lug them around with us on our last day which was very disappointing as we had planned to do some things in the city but ended up going to the airport 4hrs early instead. With all that said this was a great location for access to QPAC. Just a short walk with lots of cafes and restaurants near by and a short walk to the city.

Air conditioners did not work Roadworks at 0100am using jack hammers right outside the apartment with orange, red, blue police lights and a spotlight to light up the whole area.

Good location, check in glitch
Overall a good place to stay, close to convention centre and excellent restaurants. My only issue was with checking in. I was led to believe that reception was open until midnight, but in fact closed at 6pm. There was a number to call, but I needed to say it was an emergency to speak with someone. They then very efficiently gave me a code to access a key. It would be better to say this is the arrangement at the beginning.

Loved the location. Close to shops and eateries. Overlooking park. Walking distance to Southbank. Well-equipped apartment. Clean and comfortable. Perfect for our stay. The only thing that was disappointing was the condition of the dining chairs, they should be replaced immediately. The vinyl coating is peeling off and they looked awful.

Overall we enjoyed our stay. I think there was a problem with the plumbing on the floor above as we had an unpleasant smell through the bathroom drain. The facilities were ideal for an 8 day stay. The bed was comfortable. My biggest issue was that the smoke alarm was too close to the cooking area and it went off as soon as you started cooking. I loved the little cafe downstairs.

Clean room, with all required amenities. Wonderful that there’s a washing machine and dryer. Great location. Only negative is the slow internet speed - only enough to slowly read the news. Not enough to stream Netflix.

We liked the location and free parking. Did not like the noise. We were booked for a 3 night stay but only stayed the 1 night. There were ALL NIGHT road works directly outside the building with constant banging and clanking. Unable to sleep. Was not advised this was happening. It turned out to be a very expensive one night stay as they refused to refund the two nights we didn’t stay. Road works were continuing. Why would we stay when this was going on all night. We like our sleep and looked forward to this trip but The Vine Apartments ruined that. On a side note corridors and lift very hot and stuffy, no air circulation whatsoever. Won’t be back and will advise others not to waste their money.
