This entrance, along with the car-park entrances, is by security swipe only.
Visitor access is by video intercom, which is located at the main entrance. An additional intercom is located at the entrance to Lacrosse.
Building Management
Lacrosse is a residential apartment complex governed by a Body Corporate Committee. If you wish to review the Body Corporate Rules, please contact the Building Manager who will be pleased to provide you with a copy. Lacrosse employs a full time Building Manager, who may be contacted regarding cleaning and maintenance of the common areas during weekday business hours on 03 8102 9318. A CCTV system monitors building security 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Please note any maintenance issues in your apartment are to be communicated to Guest Services, not to the Building Manager as he/she will be unable to help. See the maintenance section for further details.
Car Parking and Bike Storage
If you have requested a car park, you will have been provided with a car park access remote upon check-in. The car park is accessed off Wurundjeri Way (Docklands Highway, State Route 55). Follow signs to the Stadium Car Parks D & E. The entrance is before car parks D & E, on your right, marked “Lacrosse Residences”. You will need to use your security swipe to gain access to the building from the car park.
Please note there is no visitor parking on site, however other public car parks are available locally. Limited on-street parking is also available on Latrobe Street.
Wall and floor mounted bike racks are located throughout the car park and in bike storage rooms (accessed using your apartment key). You must supply your own bike locking system. Bikes must not be stored anywhere in the car park except in the allocated storage areas; nor are they permitted to be ridden or transported through common areas (including lifts) to be stored in apartments.
Check Out Time
Check out time for all apartments in the Corporate Keys Group is 10:00 am.
Cook Top, Range Hood and Oven
Every cook top 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 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 cook top models have a safety switch installed on the splash back wall directly behind the cook top. These safety switches resemble a light switch and must be in the “on” position for the cook top 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 dish washing 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
In case of evacuation, DO NOT use the lifts. Evacuate via the marked “Fire Stair” exit. Fire extinguishers are located in the hallways, which should only be used if appropriate training has been provided.
Housekeeping
The linen in your apartment has been laundered prior to your arrival. If you have requested housekeeping, 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 damage 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 ironing board are located in the laundry section of your apartment.
Lifts / Elevators
