Do NOT stay here. Cleanliness was beyond substandard/non existent, beds had springs sticking through to the point where we got an air mattress out of the car. The worst part was getting back after a concert to find that a “cleaner” had been in well after check in time to set up an extra bed that we didn’t need, and had left the front door wide open and the back door unlocked when everything had been secure when we left. Several complaints were met with dismissive comments and not even an attempt at an apology. Bathroom leaked to the point where the carpet outside was wet (leak was under the floor, not in the bathroom). Place hadn’t been properly cleaned in ages, and the kitchen did not contain basic items despite being advertised as being fully equipped - for example, no washing up liquid, chipped plates, no tea towels. There were cockroaches in the kitchen cupboards, and stains on the bathroom floor mats.

Accomodation is absolutely filthy. Every piece of furniture is damaged and disgusting, floors were sticky and unclean, the sink had mould in it. Looks nothing like the photos and the area is very dodgy. The accomodation is almost certainly commission housing being rented out illegally. Avoid at all costs, stay away.

The property was very dusty and the room was quite stuffy. The couches were worn out and the bathroom door lock was broken which caused us to be locked out of the bathroom, there was no sanitary bins in the bathroom either. The linen wasn’t allergy friendly and the quality should be improved. The beds are sagging causing discomfort when sleeping. Otherwise the apartment is a good size and provided towels:)

Unfit for occupancy. Second floor sash windows had no screens with windows open on arrival, a child would easily fall out. Lounge suites that were torn and dirt and wouldn’t look out of place on a rednecks front porch as a dogs bed. Blood splatters on the back of the bathroom door. Empty toiletry packaging on floor under the vanity. Nail polish spread throughout the apartment. Unserviceable lock on sliding door. Kids drawings on most walls and blinds. Broken glass and glitter on the floor. Highlight of our stay was departing with all four wheels and no broken windows on our car.

The property had many things that needed attention and looked like it was in the middle of renovations. There was a shower screen that was broken off and stored at the top of the built in wardrobe that looked like it could have fallen out on someone.The smoke detector was also removed and stored in top of the wardrobe. The beds were poor quality and bowed. The external doors did not look like they closed properly and some of the internal door hardware was not fastened properly. The property was also not cleaned well enough. We thought that we must have been given the wrong unit number and that it wasn’t ready to be stayed in. When we rang to say we weren’t comfortable staying there and if they had a different unit to move to we were moved to a much nicer unit at a different property. We appreciate the customer service and the upgrade to a much nicer property in a nicer part of town. We won’t be staying at the bluefin apartments again and would not recommend the apartments to others but we appreciated the approachable staff who accomodated our late request to move elsewhere.

Other than being close to food shopping there is not one thing positive about this place. Disgusting Everything is broken Crumbs in beds Stains on sheets Doors broken Blinds broken Remotes don't work as batteries missing Toilet seat unattached Uncomfortable beds I have travelled a lot for business and this is BY FAR the worst place I have ever stayed at. Do yourself a favour and never stay here!!! It makes sense now why this was the last one available In future I would travel further. Avoid at all costs
