Excellent Apartment Hotel…read more My employer set me up a stay here while I look for a place of my own and it's been fantastic. Good sized rooms with all necesities covered. You can keep an independent life (cooker, washing machine, etc.) but you are also taken care of (daily cleaning, re-stocking your room, etc.) Staff is very helpful and friendly. The only downside I found was the fact that it isn't the easiest place to get to from the city (specially at night and even more if you are far from the CBD).

We booked seven nights here after spending a week at Silkari Chatswood, mainly because we wanted to…read morebe closer to Macquarie University while helping our son move in. Three days in, we've discovered that "serviced apartment" apparently means you service the apartment. Housekeeping seems to be more of a mythical creature than an actual department. If you enjoy making your own bed, living with the same towels, and wondering what day it is because nobody has entered your room, you'll feel right at home. The adventure really began when we unpacked the kitchen. Every plate, bowl, and piece of cutlery was dirty, so we thought, "No worries, we'll just use the dishwasher." We opened it... Imagine discovering the Titanic's cutlery drawer. The dishwasher racks weren't a little rusty--they looked like they'd been recovered from an archaeological dig. Every metal bar was covered in rust. Still, being optimistic, we loaded everything up, selected the heavy cycle, and waited the full 2 1/2 hours. The result? The dishes somehow managed to come out almost as dirty as they went in. That's a level of consistency you have to admire. Overall, Quest Macquarie Park is perfect if you've been feeling nostalgic for the good old days of: Washing every dish by hand. Sleeping in the same sheets all week. Doing your own housekeeping. Wondering whether the dishwasher is an appliance or an art installation. It's like someone combined a modern apartment with a week-long cadet camp in the Australian bush. A true "back to basics" experience. Highly recommended for anyone who goes on holiday and thinks, "You know what this trip is missing? More chores."

Not bad for a lunch spot, the food was generally quite nice but the pasta was a bit dry and bland,…read moreand it all took 45 minutes to come out. Plus it's super hard to find a parking spot.

This pub was actually pretty cool, though I did get the impression that it had just recently had a…read morecomplete makeover. There were a couple of outdoor areas, including a rather large outdoor dining area, and there were also quite a few decent beers on tap. The staff were prompt, and friendly as well. The other thing that I liked was the artwork on the walls - basically paintings, though it was quite clear that they were copies as opposed to prints. Still, it certainly added a lot more character to the place.

It was a bit of a hike to get here, but it was certainly worth it. From the outside it appears to…read morebe a typical suburban pub, but this completely changes when you head inside. Basically it has been completely done up, and looks impressive. Mostly it is the beer garden out that back, which is huge, and while it also has a smoking area, it is actually a decent size for those people that enjoy the simple pleasure of having a smoke with their beer. There were also some pretty decent beers on tap, but since I was wearing my Coopers T-Shirt at the time, the only thing anybody ever served me was, well, Coopers Pale Ale.

Here for the super bowl 52, where it was promoted for food, Budweiser specials and giveaways…read more.. food stopped mid game. Ran out of Bud before half time and giveaways... didn't know anything about it! Didn't live up to the promo! Will go to another venue next year. Screens were good and good venue but fails on all fronts for super bowl event. Certainly didn't help that the patriots lost.

They have happy hour but it's very unclear what the prices are and what's on it. It runs from 4-6p…read more The bartender said it's a gamble which ones come up. They were clear on beer though- the ones on either end- but I don't drink beer so I don't care. I ordered the Paraíso cocktail first, not on special, then a margarita, not on special also a glass of rosé wine also, not on special. The sign says- wine, beer, cocktails. The margarita was good but took 15 minutes, I think the one guy was newer and didn't know where things were. The staff was very pleasant but again, I only came because of happy hour and it being next door to my hotel.

Update 9 months later - went back for a specific night and ti see if anything had changed as the…read morelocations is convenient. This is the first time we have tried it again since the review below. Seems not much has changed and in fact has become more about what the manager wants rather than their patrons - you know, the people that put money in your POS. No real change to the wine list - dreadful options and very limited beer and alternate options downstairs. There is more upstairs but should I really have to walk upstairs every time I want to get a drink? The day we went, the sport on the TV is determined by what the manager wants to watch - even if the groups sitting in the area are all asking for a specific game. There was literally no one left sitting in front of the main screen, instead all huddled around a small screen inside. Broke up our group. Service rating down - this has NOTHING to do with the staff behind the bar who are delightful working the best they can with what they are given. This downgrade is purely a reflection of the service of the owners / managers and consideration of their patrons.

I stayed here with some family before going on a cruise. The room we had was a connecting two…read morebedroom, and it was a good room one of the rooms had a full kitchen while the other one had just a microwave and a sink, which didn't matter to us because we kept the connecting room door open. It's downtown Chatswood and very close to everything from food to shopping to the subway to go downtown Sydney which Was only a 20 minute ride. The staff was very friendly and very helpful of telling us how to get around the cheapest way and what site were near by. I would definitely stay here again.

Ok I will be honest with my review: I live in a Premier…read morestudio (the most expensive and biggest one) in a high floor 1-Premier Studio Condition: In a good shape (7 out of 10) some miner scratch and marks on the walls and kitchen floor. 2-Premier studio space: As a female, I found the overall space is "ok" for one person who is not planning to invite friends over. There should be more dresser. The fridge space is just enough for one person weekly food. Kitchen drawer inadequate as there is a whole drawer unusable because it designed for the kitchen fan above the stove. Room space is good for one person. 3.Additional home applications provided free by Iglu: Iglu will provide you with;Vacuum cleaner, a broom, cleaning pot, iron and iron board, kettle and toaster. TV with some free channel 4-What i think the benefit of living in Iglu? As a master student, i found Iglu very good choice for someone who is only staying for 1 year and 3 months to do their degree and go back home. This save time and money of buying furniture for apartment. -Train station, big grocery stores "woolworth", and other shopping, mall, clinics, and banks are 3 to 10 minutes walk from Iglu. So close to everything. -there facilities for residents such as cinema,study room.. Etc (i havent use any of them so i cant say much). 5-what disadvantage of living at Iglu: -the A/C (air conditions) is not a real A/C! You have to options (heat or fan): it got very hot sometimes and you cant control the A/C other than turn it on or off, choose hot or fan. -Iglu has a control system where the A/C will turn off after 3-4 hours. So every morning around 6 or 7 am , i wake up the room so hot and i have to get up, walk and turn the A/C again. -Each person is allowed 15 G of internet per month NOT per week. There is options to upgrade to 40G,100G, or unlimited. I upgraded for unlimited for additional 60$ per month. 6- Cleaning Tips. My studio was cleaned by the cleaning team, but to be honest. I didnt find the studio clean in some area. For example, There was mold under the bathroom sink, and there was mold on the bathroom fan and a bit on the bathroom seat, abd a little mold on the toilet seat. I re-cleaned the bathroom by myself and i removed the mold and spread Dettol "germs/bacteria killer" all over the bathroom and the whole studio floor. ((It is really really important to clean your place vey very well when you move on, to avoid any hygiene and health problem)) the person who lived in my studio before i moved on, he or she clearly very unclean person who didnt clean the studio regularly, (the mold is proof ). Also look under the bed, i found female pants, so disgusting!! I throw it and spread some germ and bacteria killer. I dont blame Iglu for this but i blame the unmoral and disrespectful person who left her pants behind! So for your health dont rely on Iglu team cleaning (yes they did their best) but look into invisible area and clean them.
