Merimbula apartment
Well-located for shops and places to eat, the apartment had a "beach house" vibe. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because of the lack of wi-fi.

It was okay
Location, balcony were great. Tidy. Good water supply in tiny shower (that didnt have a handle to close door when inside). Towhouse big enough for 2 (only). ALL surfaces were sticky! Main bed door couldn't open fully. Single bed squeaked creating poor sleep. Purple loo wash was gross. Poorly shaped (very small) bathroom. Paper towel and breakfast bowls would have been great. Only one blind opened (purposely created) so insufficient light. The balcony door had to be forced open, really not good enough. Everything was old and run down. Whole place DESPERATELY needs money spent on it.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We loved our stay here. Property is older but is very clean and well appointed. Great for a family. So close to the water and the main street of town. Plenty of space and parking. We loved our stay. My only disappointment was the lack of a smart TV. Seems trivial, I know, but after a long day it’s nice to hotspot from your phone and sign into your own Netflix account. The tv was just a standard one and there was a dvd player but no dvds.
