Not satisfied
During the 15 night stay, there was absolutely no house keeping. No clean towels, no rubbish bin liner replacements, washing up liquid was ridiculously watered down so bought our own as well as toilet paper as the 1 ply supplied was not acceptable. The bed was so old it was very uncomfortable. Overall, would be ok for a night or 2 but not for a long term stay.

Horrible condition, mould throughout bathroom, doors falling apart, unable to lock the flyscreen. People banging and carrying all night around the area. Ended up booking elsewhere for the remainder of our trip.

Wouldn't recommend
Firstly, it served where u wanted to stay, close to a doctors surgery, as i work remotely I had to get a medical clearance for work. It was clean. Toilet seat lid was cracked. The water pressure started well, then dropped off. If someone was using the bathroom sink, there was no water at the shower. Early morning there was loud shouting and banging against doors and windows, very unsettling. I wouldn't recommend staying here, but as mentioned, it served its purpose, close to a doctors surgery.

Wearing: Read the booking in fine print. Have to give 72 hours notice to book in after 2pm. They have to give an access code. I contacted the office at 3pm on the day of arrival. No answer and no reply to my message. I had to book in and pay again at another motel. Terrible service.

Can be really noisy
Oh my god a couple decided to argue loudly several times during my stay. It was frightening and needs to be monitored more. Others had no consideration of others and spoke loudly on their phones on the landings. No consideration of others. Some people don't seem to understand that they are not at home. This included families with young children.

We ended up finding alternate accommodation after arriving to check in we found the building to be run down, felt very unsafe and multiple undesirable people hanging around. Many reports of cockroach infestation and other concerning things were the last straw so we left. Reception closed at 1pm on a saturday so could not talk to staff regarding our concerns. We will not book this accommodation again. Would not recommend at all!

The blinds in the room were damaged and some missing. Because of this the rooms were too light to sleep properly. A review of the room information provided that you would be charge for leaving clean dishes out when you leave.

I liked the location of the property and it was clean and comfortable. I was very disappointed we didn't have any hot water! Because we didn't find this out until later in the evening it was "after hours" and they did nothing about it and didn't return my call.

My gran and mum love the private courtyard. The rooms are spacious and clean and BV the soap smells lovely ☺️ Some extra pillows in the cupboard could be handy for those who sleep with more than one.(luckily my children don't sleep on their pillows haha)

Cheap and convenient to airport but they did not send lock box code for entry to apartment when promised and had to make two phone calls before we got it. Booked in on return from Bali arriving 11.45pm. What happens if they forget next time?

I have stayed at the Burswood lodge a number of times and have been happy but this time I was not. One leg of lounge chair was broken, toilet system was leaking ,tap at sink was also leaking. When wife stepped in for shower she slipped and the rod keeping the curtain up to stop the water coming out of the shower came down it was only stuck up. As we had to leave to catch a plane early I never had a chance to talk to anyone as I have only just got back

What you must be aware of is the owner is only there from 9am to 1pm so if you can nor get there all is easy. Getting your key outside of these hours is very difficult. We ended up going back to airport and staying there as we can not get in and could not contact any one. The apartment is good size, has everything needed and just across the road is a small shopping centre. Around the island and in the opposite direction to the shopping centre is a path to walk beside the river.
