The Botanic apartments were all that they advertise to be. It's a quiet situation, but with the main shopping area within walking distance. We found the apartment to be very clean and fresh. Was great to have a king bed with beautiful fresh linen. The bathroom and kitchen were new and it was very convenient to have access to a washer and dryer within the apartment. My husband and I would definately stay again when in Warnambool. Highly recommend.

We booked 3 D 2 N , and the second day we backed to the apt, We saw a green rubbish bag in front of our door. And its broken, the garbage all over the ground. We cleaned it up and feel so rude… we are ok to clear it by ourselves…and it affects the hygienic environment too
Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023
Response from Linda on Sep 11, 2023
Hi Yuet Sheung, we were so glad to hear that you extended your stay by an extra night and can only apologise for the broken garbage bag. We have had some extreme weather this last 24 hours and we think the bag must have been blown from the storage area. Rest assured that our hygiene is of a very high standard and once again, apologies for the havoc wreaked by the high winds during your stay. It must have looked a bit of a mess. Regards, Linda

Very thoughtfully renovated. Everything you need for a comfortable stay. The only thing I would say it may because it hadn't been rented out in a while but there was a film of dust over everything in the bathroom. Other than that, thr staff were wonderful and it was a pleasant two night stay.

Response from Linda on Apr 10, 2022
Hi Robyne, Thanks for your well considered review and positive comments. I can solve the mystery of the "dust" in the bathroom. I spoke to the housekeepers and the bathroom cleanser product can sometimes leave a slight residue if not properly rinsed, so apologies for that happening. Rest assured the apartment had been thoroughly cleaned. I did smile to myself when you suggested that it was possibly due to the apartment not being rented out in a while as the apartments are so popular and in constant use! Thanks again for staying and for your review. Much appreciated.

Property has been refurbished so all is new and fresh. Some work us still being done on the outside so workmen can sometimes get in the way or be a bit noisy but the noise was kept well within working hours. Otherwise the property was relatively quiet. Smart TV with Netflix was good.
