Kyneton South Vacations from $319

Relaxing stay. Friendly staff and great location.

Property is good for family and spacious. Best location to stay in city and had a nice view. Had bit of hiccups with the property as there is only one aircon in hall. Went during peak summer and it was hot in the other rooms. Coffee machine was not working. Dryer and washing machine are very old and had trouble in using them.

Freeway side was noisy with traffic. Waiting for lift down on departure for half an hour is not acceptable. Many guests resorted to stairs. Bedding a bit light and cooling was too cool. Took a long time to warm up.

This property might be okay, if you have complete flexibility for your stay. For example, there is no front desk (known when booking), you have to coordinate a time via phone to check in. You cannot leave your bags in the property before or after check-in and there is no parking (again - known at time of booking). The property is very dated, the carpets have large lumps throughout the living and bed rooms and are a bit of a trip hazard. There is extension cords and power boards running across the floor in the living room and a power board next to the bed. The heating/cooling system could be the loudest I've ever experienced and there was a reed diffuser which makes an overpowering smell for a small apartment. The TV in the living room did not work (it turns on and has a blurred picture) and the batteries in 2 of the 3 remotes were flat. Positives are that the apartment is a good size and has all of the facilities that you would want in it. It is very close to the Queen Vic Market and easy walking distance the central Melbourne.
