The property was quiet and peaceful, and the staff I had contact with could not have been more helpful and pleasant. My only complaint with my room (room 003) was that the reading lamp alongside the bed did not work, the handbasin in the bathroom took a LONG time to drain, and the coffee cups in the kitchen cupboard needed a good clean. (One is now very clean - I washed it) Housekeeping should check these every day.

The property itself was very good and parking underneath made it easy. The kitchen was good except for the oven not working. Also the front door was pretty hard to close without slamming.

Be aware that if your room keycard should not work for any reason, it's a 650m walk to the reception at the Attika Hotel.

The receptionist was far to busy speaking in a foreign language to her friends to fail to tell me when the bond was going back into my account and made me feel rushed out and like she couldn’t be bothered. When entering the property the carpets were absolutely filthy along with the dovet that had yellow stains on it, there was a loud on off droning noise coming from the balcony right next to the bedroom window, let us have all but four hours sleep. The water in the shower was absolutely freezing.To pay over $250 for one night for this is absolutely atrocious and we won’t be going back or recommending anyone else to go.

Apartment is spacious and well laid out, including a laundry. Beds very comfortable but rollaway bed hard as rock. Great kitchen and tv area, though couch is old and needs replacement. Lovely modern, clean bathroom. Fan did not work though so gets very steamy. Patio area would be nice if it was clean and tidy, but it needs attention, and has old pieces of scrap timber in the garden. The bedroom window does not close properly, posing a security risk on the ground floor. Parking is unnecessarily expensive, there would be enough free parking for all guests if two/three of the bays were not occupied by all the cleaning and maintenance materials. Reception staff need to pay more attention to booking requests, as mine were obviously not properly read. Also the attika hotel needs a key drop box for before hours check outs. A few things could have made this good stay into a great one.

Don't stay here
You check in at one place, then have to walk 500 metres+ to the actual apartments. Apartment floors are pretty dirty. Lift didn't work - good luck if you're on the fourth floor.

ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING!!
The place is DISGUSTING!! Stains all over the carpet, stains on the walls! Couch was wrecked and filthy, the man hole was missing, there was no lid on the bun, the tap in kitchen was broken, the shower was filthy and broken. I was there 7 nights and they didn’t clean the room once and I paid to dollar! They only called me to get my ID then they wouldn’t answer the phone every day I called. I travel for work every week and this was the worst most disgusting place I’ve ever stayed at!! It’s actually that bad it’s not healthy! Fix the rooms and clean them to make them liveable!!!!!! YUK!!!!

Never Again
Do not stay here, it is soooo noisy, unregulated and a place for teenagers to party and run amok. Add to this it’s is dirty, the cleaners don’t clean and the furnishings are old and look like they are from garage sales. The bedding is disgusting, dirty, mouldy and I could go on & on……..Don’t Stay Here!!!

Nice little apartment however checking in off site was a pain. Apartment was clean and tidy however couldn’t have visitors to the apartment without risking a $200 fine. No hairdryer, no power points beside bed and very poor tv reception with no Foxtel. Minimal kitchen equipment for food prep and no dishwasher. No extra blessing either. Quiet area, easy access to transport.

I was unaware of the check in process. I was not emailed nor personally contacted about the process of checking in. I did not know that check in was located at Attika apartments, I had to call reception to ask. I was also not provided with a garage remote but was fortunate enough to have found one in the key returns box so I was able to park my car in the apartments parking area. If I had not found this garage remote, my car would have been left on the street.

Close but so FAR
Oh you were so close to getting 4 stars, but there were just too many hiccups. The apartment was very nice and extremely clean; job well done for the cleaning crew. Unfortunately, the level of accessories did not match up to the level of a 4-star accommodation. Our stay started out kinda rough when a washer/dryer was advertised and only a washer was present. We had to prove (by taking pictures) that the dryer was missing. The manager did rectify the problem the following day by dropping off a dryer, but their handyman was on holiday and couldn’t hang it in the laundry room and put it in a space with no power. It doesn’t take too much to install a hanging dryer and I moved it to the balcony so I could dry my close. Everything that the owner could have done to get the property over the bar was subpar. The dishwasher was loud and lacked dishwasher soap, the sink faucet was cheap, the toilet paper was a step up from sand paper, a bottle of water was $3. You don’t have to buy top of the line appliance, just not the cheapest. The small things that when added counted against them. Overall I give them a 3.5….but it COULD have been a 4+.

the apartment was large and roomy. had most of everything we needed. our dryer didnt work but they were happy to move us into another room. The carpets were quiet stained and the car parking is expensive but you really dont have a choice. If i needed anything is was no drama. Staff were very good. We were there for 2 weeks had no vacuum or broom and apartments not serviced in that time. They did come and ask us if we needed anything though. Position is good. Not far in city and only about $10 into city by uber. For price you pay you cant expect everything. It was ok. Did the job. Im in the middle with this one

Wonderful staff . Great apartments
If your e ever going to text positive for Covid ., this is the place you would want to be staying. I was checking out and I pissed tested positive. Needless to say I was in a major stress mode the girls down at the reception absolutely brilliant they took action immediately and everything was done such a professional manner I very much appreciate the patience that was shown to me during my state of panic. Ann unusual review but probably more common in the future with the way the world is now. I thought it very relevant to post this review for those that are concerned about travelling in 2022 .. is that the staff of Zappeion apartments will take a personal approach to any problems that might arise. Even COVID .
