The bathroom's were newly renovated and the decor was nice. Our disappointment was the abundance of mold growing on the curtains. This was extremely off-putting. We did complain and someone did come to... more

A few days after staying at this establishment, Focus Apartments, deducted money from our credit card, alleging that we 'trashed the place'. They were unable to produce any evidence, ironically we'd left the rooms in a better state than we'd found them!

The thieves left with all our luggage, leaving us... more

We stayed in a 3 bedroom apartment within minutes of entering the place we all had black feet. The apartment was filthy! We spent our first night cleaning the place. We told the manager who admited that the cleaners had been a problem in the past but they have now fixed this and it might be that our apartment was... more

We arrived at 10pm and waited for the key to our level 6 unit to be brought to us. The person with the key told us he had just been up to the unit and it hadn't been cleaned, so would we mind waiting while he tidied up.....he would have had since 10am that morning. We went and had something... more
