Recommended temperatures: Heating 20c / Cooling 22c.
Please turn off heating and cooling when not in the apartment to reduce power usage. To change settings please use the remote located in your apartment.
Building Entry
Entry to the ID Apartments complex is via secure intercom and swipe-card access. The main pedestrian entrance is on Pickles Street, and residents must use their swipe card each time they enter the building, including when arriving via the car park.
Visitors to your apartment
Visitors must request access via the intercom at the building entry — you can grant them access from your unit.
Building Management
ID Apartments is a residential apartment complex governed by a Body Corporate Committee. Please take a few minutes to review the Body Corporate Rules, which are attached at the back of this section.
Note: At no time should you contact the Building Manager or Concierge for apartment specific maintenance issues as they will be unable to help.
Building Rules
In signing your Licence to Occupy or accepting keys for your stay you have agreed to abide by the Body Corporate Rules that apply to this building. If you wish to review this document please find this attached as part of this Guide.
Car Parking
If you have requested a car park, you will be issued with a car park remote upon check-in. The entrance to the car park is located on Rouse Street. Please Note: Rouse Street is a one-way street which must be accessed from Danks Street West, turn left onto Johnson Street, then turn left onto Rouse Street. You will also require your car park remote and swipe card to exit the building and to access the building via the car park. There is no visitor parking on site, however limited metered on street parking is available.
Check Out Time
Check out time for all Corporate Keys apartments is 10:00 am.
Cook Top, Range Hood and Oven
Every cooktop is fitted with a range hood. Please ensure this is used when cooking. Smoke alarms activated by guests due to a failure to use the range hood incur costs for attendance of the Metropolitan Fire Brigade; these costs are payable by the guest. Certain models of oven require the clock to be set correctly. If your oven will not heat, please check that the clock is set before contacting Guest Services. If the oven will not turn off, ensure the door is closed properly and that no cooking function is selected. If the oven shuts down, it may have overheated. It will reset itself, but you will need to reset the clock (depending on the model, the oven may not function again until the clock is reset).
Some cooktop models have a safety switch installed on the splashback wall directly behind the cooktop. These safety switches resemble a light switch and must be in the “on” position for the cooktop hobs to operate. If you require the full manual, please contact Guest Services. Alternatively, most appliance manuals can be downloaded from the internet.
Dishwasher
A starter pack of dishwashing tablets/powder is located in the cupboard under the sink in the kitchen. Additional tablets or powder can be purchased from your local supermarket. Please use only powder or tablets specifically marked for dishwasher use in the dishwasher. Liquids will damage the machine, and guests will be liable for any resulting service charges.
If you require the full manual, please contact Guest Services. Alternatively, most appliance manuals can be downloaded from the internet.
Emergency Evacuation Procedures
Please refer to the Emergency Evacuation Plan located next to the lifts on each floor. Please contact the Concierge or Building Manager with any questions regarding evacuation procedures. The Emergency Evacuation Plan is also located at each entry to the building.
Housekeeping
The linen in your apartment has been laundered prior to your arrival. If you have requested housekeeping services, Guest Services will contact you by email to confirm the schedule for this service. If no housekeeping service has been requested, subsequent laundering of linen is your responsibility for the duration of your stay. Please ensure that linen is cared for and that white towels and sheets are not washed with coloured items.
Please note – do not hang any wet laundry across furniture. Doing so will cause damage to the furniture, for which guests are liable. Should you not have a housekeeping service and later wish to request one, please contact Guest Services.
Ironing Facilities
An iron and an ironing board are located in the laundry area/wardrobe of your apartment.
Lifts / Elevators
To activate the lift, scan your security swipe and select the floor number you wish to go to. Your swipe will only be programmed to access the floors that you are eligible to enter.
