Our little family of four stayed in these apartments on a recent trip to Sydney, the pictures do it justice - what you get in real life is very different. Our apartment was extremely small, with no out door area, infested with cockroaches, poor quality carpentry work and definitely “done up” on a budget, we were in the ground floor apartment and the sewer pipes were extremely loud, when ever the upstairs occupancy used the bathroom we could hear loud and clear- just terrible. I was told the apartment was child friendly however there was no plastic Tupperware provided, I would advise people to look long and hard and maybe pay the extra couple hundred for a hotel. The cherry on top is the receptionist on the front desk is extremely abrupt and loves an argument. I will not be returning to the Manly Designer Apartments nor will I be recommending them to anyone.
