Fundamental things are broken in the apartments and can't be fixed. No intercom, just a hole in the wall that couldn't be fixed. Sweltering inside with broken aircon and an untreatable mould problem. Recurring problems with cockroaches and plumbing. These are cheaply made units that are not maintained - they do the absolute minimum with maintenance and you'll have to chase them over weeks, if not months, if it involves owners spending any money. At 700+ per week for a tiny studio unit, basic things should be working.

Amazing studio apartment. Great location and the property manager Silvana was always very helpful. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a place near the city.

Really nice facilities, very cozy studios. Has everything you need. Lovely community. Brani the building manager is the nicest, most welcoming person I have interacted with in Australia. Even the toughest problem is solved quick and easy when he is on it. Would highly recommend especially if you are fresh off of the boat in Australia.

A really cozy nice area to stay - easy to access to transport, shops, cafes and restaurants. It is convenient as everything is furnished and prepare. Brandi as the building manager is also really kind and keen on helping different matters. Highly recommended.

I love the location. It is extremely convenient, especially when you commute to the CBD often. As someone new to Sydney, the UKO community is very nice and welcoming. Brani is very kind and supportive to me. Thank you so much, Brani!

Beautiful studio with great view. We lived here for three months and it was great experience! Brani is a very responsive & organised host, and we especially enjoy the fresh linen and towels provided every week. Thanks UKO!
