"This was our second trip to Abode Belconnen. The first stay was so great we didn’t hesitate to book again. This time, we still had a comfortable stay (and obviously the convenient location hasn’t changed), but a handful of reasonably small things left us feeling a little let down this time. 1. Room layout for a 2-bedroom apartment was significantly smaller than the last 2-bedroom apartment we stayed in. This one felt much more cramped in every room. 2. There was no dustpan and broom in the room, which was a problem when I accidentally dropped and broke a plate while washing up. We had to call reception and ask for a vacuum cleaner which took a while to arrive in our room. 3. There’s no phone in the room. This wasn’t an issue for us, but meant that when my husband had to call reception for a vacuum cleaner, he called from his mobile and had to first explain he wasn’t trying to make a booking. 4. In the gym, there are no hand sanitising stations or anything to wipe down the machines/equipment after a workout. Is that normal? It didn’t feel very hygienic. 5. The bathrooms have black tiles, but there was some noticeable grime build up in the corner of the showers. Otherwise the room seemed pretty clean."
