    The cleanliness of the property was extremely poor. The doonas very dirty and looked like they were covered in blood, hair was found all through the bathroom and in the sheets.

    Room had water leak, paint peeling and black mould on carpet. In Oaks, but run by 3rd party. Keys provided didn't work on common door. Left as soon as we could find alternative accommodation. Should have read reviews... They have refused to provide us a refund after knowingly putting an unfit room up for booking.

    Getting out of there.

    Third party management company not communicating with oaks on site made the process frustrating. The cleaning of the room was not up to the rest of the standard compared to other rooms. Again to me a management issue.

    Disappointing

    Frustrating getting access cards.. the email contained incorrect information and no location. Had to call Airtrip team, leave a message and wait for response. Then had to hunt through a number of small lock boxes that had combination locks but no lighting to assist. Finally got the second card that did not unlock any doors so arrangements made for Osks staff to assist. The fridges in both units did not freeze any item put into the freezer section. There were small black flies in all drawers and cupboards in one unit along with numerous cockroaches over a 4 day period.. reported immediately and took 3 days to get an actual physical response. 2 doors in the second unit 805B had damaged hinges and didn’t function correctly or close. The TV in 805B developed a screen fault - this was replaced but not set up. Instructions to access FOXTEL did not work. Shower drain in 805B did not drain quickly and a ‘pool’ developed whilst showering… which did eventually drain. Bathroom on 805A was not used due to black flies and multiple cockroaches during stay.

    Its location was good. In city and close to facilities.

    I was given the wrong room. I paid $1500 for a 100sqm room with a balcony, kitchen, washing machine and dryer. I was given a 20sqm showbox with no balcony, windows that didn't open, no kitchen, no washing machine and no dryer. I called the host multiple times a day to find out what was happening, if I would be placed in another room, or if I would receive a refund. Each phone call they just said they would direct it to their team. A week later I have still had no response

    The location was great.

    The booking felt deceptive, I did not realise at the time I was not booking direct with Oaks. There is nothing in the advertisement stating it is a private rental managed by Airtrip, but shows a picture of the Oaks Apartment sign in the add. There are signs everywhere within the building stating Oaks are not responsible for any Airtrip room issues. The TV worked, but is old fashioned and did not allow casting netflix etc to it. Signage advertising how to use Foxtel were incorrect, as there was no Foxtel. The dishwasher was broken and did not work at all. A rep did come up and check it, and measured for a new one, but It did not show up during my time there. For a 2 week stay, I would have appreciated these things.

    The dual-room setup, cleanliness and location were close to perfect. The Airtrip help line is quick to reply, just use the booking.com app to contact them. It worked well. I read that some have problems with retreiving their room key from the lock-boxes across the road... but it is actually an easy process and all the information is suppled ahead of time. Follow the steps and it works out fine.

    Lots of issues through air trip. Keys didn’t work and kept needing coding. Tv was intermittent. Lifts broke down. Unit not clean. Rubbish on the ground in laundry area. Had to contact air trip for every thing and reception would not help. We left an item in the room and have not had a response regarding where we can collect it. Pillows were truly terrible. We had to get our own. The shower pressure was very very soft and dissapointing.

    Location was great

    Some items just need a little updating. When I had a question re: keys just a little hard to get an immediate response from the online Checkin services.

    Apart was great size and location. Pool area was very nice and great BBQ facilities. Room was very clean and well presented. Easy to find keys for collection. Online was checkin process was pretty easy to follow.
