La Loft Apartments Unley

Adelaide

The fact this place was available at short notice during school holidays should have been a red flag. 

Urgent deep clean and maintenance required! We stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment and it was absolutely disgusting.  

On arrival there was a strong stench of cigarette smoke which had clearly permeated the soft furnishings as it barely dissipated despite leaving windows open the entire 3 night stay. 

The curtains and carpets are stained, smelly, and need replacing. The ensuite blind was in such poor condition that we couldn’t close it (no privacy!). 

The bathrooms (particularly showers) hadn’t been properly cleaned for quite some time, with sludge in the shower screen track and lots of mould, dirty bin lid. 

We wouldn’t stay here again or recommend this accommodation to anyone else unless it has been deep cleaned and soft furnishings replaced. This is unfortunate because the location is amazing and the apartment is very spacious. So much potential let down by lack of maintenance.

I have provided specific  feedback direct to La Loft, but have not received a reply.

Needs a deep clean and full refurbishment

We have had a great time staying in the townhouse, it was very nice for us especially as we had just arrived here in Adelaide to start a new chapter in our life.
The welcome and help many people had given us was so comforting.

The accommodation was much better than I thought and the accessories were just what we needed. It felt like the townhouse was ours.

I would certainly recommend La Loft Apartments to my friends if they come to visit as it has easy access to the city and beach at Glenelg.

Warm and relaxing

Stayed 6 nights, and as you, I too read reviews before I booked. Each reply from La Loft stated "The cleaning and presentation issues you have identified shouldn't need to be raised but they will be addressed. This is not the feedback we generally receive." Unfortunately, they DO NOT address the cleaning issues. We were very disappointed with the cleanliness of our apartment, the curtains are stained and old, the carpet is worse for wear.  The linen looked disgusting, we were to scared to sleep on it. The lounge is old and tarnished. The crockery also stained, I had to wash what we used with boiling water. The big surprise was opening the microwave to see left over food on the turntable. We called the contact number and asked to have it cleaned, we were told that housekeeping management will call us, however, no surprise there, we never got a call. The apartment definitely needs a coat of paint. The bathrooms are old, the mould on the tiles very obvious. There is no hooks in the bathroom to hang anything on. We had no coat-hangers, no extra blankets, no full length mirror, I could go on and on. However, on the positive, it is in a great and quiet location and if you have a car, you have an allocated parking spot.

VERY Disappointed


We enjoyed our stay at these apartments - modern, functional, comfortable, centrally located and close to everything. However a couple of minor downsides - there is only one mirror in the entire apartment  - difficult when you have girls & makeup and there was no soap dish/holder in the shower. And the shower was not clean. There was mould and grunge on the shower door rail which was cleaned after I complained but it was a superficial clean with mould & grunge still there plus outside shower near the toilet and inside the shower in the corners. And there appears to be a bit of mould on the ceiling above the shower. As well one kitchen cupboard which housed the toaster, kettle and iron had not been cleaned in months - it was full of crumbs from the toaster. A great apartment but not clean enough for me unfortunately. 

Comfortable, functional and close to everything but not that clean

close to everything....quiet....provided everything we needed....for the pricing I didnt expect 5 star like other comments obviously...it was clean and two bathrooms were a bonus...was enough for our needs...we were out more than in anyway...you need to txt them for wifi details...

La Loft apartments

The apartment is located just five minutes drive to the city center and you can walk to the city for about 15 minutes. There are many eating places along Unley Road. It hides at the inner road and is very quiet at night time. We could sleep peacefully over the night. The two bedrooms apartment is spacious with modern design. Reserved parking is right at the entrance. The only drawback is the shower head which the water flow cannot be adjusted.

Good Location - Central but Quiet

The apartment was very basic, staying for 3 nights we were only provided with 3 towels, 1 packet of laundry detergent & minimal bathroom amenities, the shower had mould all through it even higher on the walls and leaked, also the bathroom fan was THICK with dust, the lounge suite was stained and fraying, bedroom duvet was also stained, curtains in every room were dirty and had mould on them also there was chewing gum stuck to the dining room table witch could have been there for months considering the extremely poor effort of cleanliness LA LOFT APARTMENTS provide! You would have a nicer stay at a back packers. I would not recommend nor stay in these apartments again. Very disappointed... see pictures provided

NEEDS A UPGRADE & a clean !!

Having done lots of apartment and Hotel accommodation in my time I can tell you what I write is honest and fair.
“LaLoft needs updating as very tired BUT comfy & very central. H'keeping inspection required.”
눉I didn't like the different little things that needed attention e.g.. not enough crockery, utensils, cleaning cloths for kitchen, dirty vent for aircon. in ceiling, no privacy in rooms which being grd floor needed something in between drapes so you could fling open the drapes instead of using electric lights, stove exhaust fan didn't work, ensuite wash basin tap leaking, nowhere to hang anything in bathrooms OR caddy for shampoos in shower recess etc. lounge seating too low for we Snrs, no reading magazines or Instruction Book to give Guest an idea what is around close by e.g. restaurants, shopping, hairdresser.
눇I enjoyed the space of the apartment, large refrigerator, quiet area and your own specially allocated parking. Apartment easy to get too. Located in between King William Rd & Unley Rd; now you couldn't get any better than that. Kevin & Ann Marie the Managers were always there if required by phone. Couldn't do enough even though they were not physically seen. Just a phone call away as we say!

It's got a balcony, a kitchen, free wifi, free parking! Near the center. There are plenty of restaurants and cafes nearby. There's a responsive staff (as everywhere in Australia).
