I stayed in a privately owned apartment in this building and seem to have avoided most of the issues raised in recent bad reviews. The owners made it very clear that their place is not part of the Quest hotel. Since it is located in the same building, I am providing my review here. It was not a cheap stay, but it was not bad. What I liked about the place: - Central location and an easy walk to the CBD for meetings/conference and also the wharf area for dinner. - The apartment is spacious with a desk area for working. All the basics are provided and the apartment was clean and kitchen well equipped for self catering. - Communication from the owners was efficient and early. They provided directions and access details the day before arrival - There is a deck area for spending time outside (but it is not private and overlooks a busy road and intersection) - Extra towels provided. This is so handy for anyone with long hair and is often overlooked. This place provided ample towels. - Although I did not use it, I liked that the laundry area was separate for the main living area. What I did not like: - The bathroom. It is a shower over a bath set up. The bath is pretty deep so not easy to get into. There is a step to get into the bath, but the tiles can be slippery when wet. Unfortunately it will make it challenging getting into the shower for anyone with any mobility issues. The shower is fixed in a corner and not adjustable at all. The bath also appeared to the one place not probably cleaned. Several hairs (presumably from the previous guest) made it less appealing. General info: Parking was included in my room rate, so I cannot tell how much it cost, but it was handy having onsite covered parking. Getting into and out of the building is not easy though and with a large SUV or ute it may be impossible. It is a very tight and cramped and dark space. There is currently major construction right next door. This means construction noise from about 7am in the morning. Accessing services like rubbish and recycling drop off is a hassle. It is not on the same floor and it is not clearly marked, creating confusion. The apartment was well equipped for a self catering stay, but basics like tea, coffee, sugar and milk are not provided. Bring your own because the nearest supermarket is 2 km away so not a quick walk.

“Maybe look elsewhere”

Would suggest looking elsewhere, unless this is the only place that you can book. Stayed on the ground floor in apartment 23. Was woken up at around 3am by a couple having a domestic dispute outside. Furniture is dated and requires replacement. Parking is $15 per night and secure, well worth the mo… lisää

Furniture is dated and requires replacement. Parking is $15 per night and secure, well worth the money though be aware that it is a bit tight.
