Reviews for Crest On Barkly
fabbio ciuffetelli
Wouldn't recommend this place. Had a king size room , wasn't ready at 3pm when check in was a 2. Room bathroom smelt like sewage and found stains on sheets. Got another room but queen, wasn't reimbursed the extra for downgrade. Will look somewhere else next time.

The stay at this apartment was not up to standard. Customer service at front desk seemed like they couldn’t be bothered and lacked experience. Toilet squealed so loud right throughout the unit every 10 minutes (requested it be looked at and sorted our second day - staff said they wouldn’t get anyone in over a weekend so would get someone in on Monday… yet they never did anything about it during our 6 night stay). Shower had black mould everywhere, bath tub didn’t have a plug, previous guests underwear/bras were left in a side drawer, the rooms looked nothing like the pictures provided on their website, broken blinds, dusty window borders… so much to list that was wrong with the place, it’s ridiculous. I definitely would NOT recommend staying at this place.

Room wasn't the best, had a weird smell to it. Television remote wasn't working properly either. The shower wasn't properly cleaned but we were just there to sleep for a night. If you need something in your budget it will do. Very noisy in the hallway as i already heard the staff at 7 am.

Rooms are badly in need of maintenance. When I arrived, I was charged a $500 deposit (despite ambiguous and conflicting amounts showing on their website). During the night of my stay, the toilet blocked and flooded and despite cleaning up as best I could, raw sewage was spread around. Imagine my surprise when I was told the blockage was my fault and they wouldn't refund the $500. I checked the reviews only to find others have suffered the same or similar. The staff are rude, unhelpful and probably in on the scam. Absolutely despicable. Read all the reviews before you stay here. Very grateful to my bank who have given them a charge back after confirming others have had similar experiences.

Myself and my partner stayed here for one night and unfortunately we had a terrible experience. On check in we were informed that we had been upgraded to an alternative room. At 01.15am a man walked into our bedroom and gave us both an awful fright. It was a traumatic experience to find out that another gentleman had been checked into our room at this hour. The room itself was very basic and the place needs an upgrade. At 7.20 the same person whom checked us in then came knocking on our door to find out who was in the room even though he checked us into that room. We were advised he would speak to the manger about that this and see what he could. On check out he openly apologised and admitted it was his fault as he did not update the system yesterday on our arrival for the night staff. All we were offered was a cold breakfast which we kindly refused while his colleague behind the desk sniggered and laughed at the situation. Absolutely disgraceful behaviour and completely unprofessional. I would not return here and would like to reach out to the manager for a formal complaint
