Crest on Barkly Serviced Apartments

The staff were extremely helpful. The room was great for a family, loved the kitchen facilities and how spacious the apartment was. Parking was easy but also so close to public transport and supermarkets.

There is much to like about the Crest Apartments on Barkly. If you are looking for value for money and happy for older apartments that have various levels of upgrade, these are for you. We were initially concerned given the wide range of reviews, but just remember you are not checking into 2025 new, you are checking into clean, comfortable and well presented. Staff were friendly and our apartment was regularly cleaned over the 4 nights of our booking. Beds were comfortable. Our 3 bedroom apartment had a toilet separate to the bathroom and a washer/dryer in the bathroom. It even had a modern spa bath. However my other apartment, while similar, did not have that feature. A good value for money option, with a close tram into the city or down to St Kilda proper. Lots of eating options and a Woolworths (small version) about 10 minute walk away.

Warm and comfortable though the windows could do with thicker curtains for the winter. I would've recommended the radiant panel heaters over their very powerful and easy to use dual system air con, while it's clearly a beast, it's an inefficient form of heating that fades the minute it's off to the plus it dries you out something shocking! They have spa baths as standard! Fantastic! Probably isn't the fanciest place out there, but for nice location,
