Stoneville Vacations from $970

Convenient location, stayed in superior studio apartment. Room was good, deck area was very small and in full sun all afternoon so couldn’t use it. Had to unload luggage before parking as if you have anything larger than a hatch back you may have trouble opening your doors if adjoining bay has a vehicle in it. Website photo doesn’t quite represent the actual outdoor amenities for anyone who likes to spend time outside. Apart from needing the addition of a shade screen for the outdoor area these rooms are still great for a single/couple. Some of the other units look great with large shaded balcony’s so once you know the layout booking in future will be much better.

First of all, the location was excellent. Conveniently located between Kings Park and the Elizabeth Quay and CBD. We walked pretty much everywhere and only used our car a few days. Unfortunately, the Wifi was terrible, painfully slow and intermittant. My wife and I depend on internet access for our jobs, so we ended up having to hot spot our phones and use cellular data instead. Improving Wifi should be a top priority for the property managers. Other than that, the one bedroom apartment was simple, but clean. The bed was comfortable, and the only other issue was the fan above the stove didn't work. Once they improve the Wifi, it will be hard to beat this location.

The Vines used to be a 5 star resort but definitely not any more. The restaurant and cocktail bar have now closed so only option to eat is in the bar/cafe. Used to be 36 holes of golf. Only 18 holes now open - one nine is closed and the other not being maintained. Great shame.

I know the desired "vibe" is that of a cozy, quaint accommodation, but I would rather have less cozy and more comfort and convenience. There's no mini fridge, and our room had only one chair. There was only a bar along the wall to hang clothes. The bathroom was quite large. I'd rather have less bathroom and more room. An upgrade was suggested at check-in for a room with a balcony, but as I saw from the outside, the balconies were tiny and IMO not worth the extra $. I have stayed in many hotels and motels, and I have never been charged for a continental breakfast. For $20+, the charge seemed way out of line - especially for such a limited selection. Having said all that, I really liked the sitting/lounge area. The access to a variety of complimentary beverages was much appreciated. The staff were very pleasant, and the location is very convenient for transportation and eats. It's a short walk to the CBD. As much as it seems I have complained, we did enjoy our stay. Still though, it wouldn't take much to make it an exceptional hotel. Make the rooms more accommodating - add a chair. Add a minifridge. Put in an armoire. Provide a complimentary continental breakfast. Really... those are little things that would make a big difference.
