The room is very spacious; I rented a 2b with a friend. There is a large living room, and the bedroom is quite big for me, not as small as I imagined. It's worth mentioning that the furniture and facilities in the room are very new, and the overall experience is excellent. For me, Scape Carlton has many advantages; it is very close to the University of Melbourne, especially for students in the business school. The hot water at Scape Carlton is really great; the hot water is stable when showering, and it comes on immediately. Additionally, the staff at the front desk are very friendly. Overall, it is a fantastic student apartment.
