Black & White Delight – 2bd 2bth Apt – Braddon Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Black & White Delight – 2bd 2bth Apt – Braddon, you immediately get why this place scores so well with guests. It’s one of those four-star properties that doesn’t try too hard — just clean lines, modern touches, and that satisfying feeling when you know you’ve picked well. The building sits quietly on Torrens Street, and honestly, the whole setup feels more like staying at a friend’s really nice place than a typical hotel experience.

Location & Neighborhood

Braddon is actually one of Canberra‘s coolest pockets, and this apartment puts you right in the thick of it. You’re walking distance to Lonsdale Street’s café strip — I mean, we’re talking some seriously good coffee here, which matters when you’re exploring the capital. The location rating of 9.3 from recent guests isn’t just numbers on a screen; couples especially seem to love how easy it is to wander around from here. There’s something about being in a real neighborhood rather than stuck in some hotel district that just feels right.

The Space

The two-bedroom, two-bathroom layout works brilliantly whether you’re traveling with friends or just want that extra space to spread out. Each room has its own character — the master feels particularly spacious, and having two full bathrooms means no awkward morning queues. The black and white design theme runs throughout without being heavy-handed about it. You know what I really appreciated? The kitchen is actually functional, not just for show, so you can grab groceries from the nearby shops and cook if you want to save a few dollars or just fancy a quiet night in.

Practical Perks

Here’s where this place really shines — free private parking on site. If you’ve ever tried to park in central Canberra, you’ll understand why this is such a big deal. No circling blocks, no feeding meters, just pull up and you’re done. The whole check-in process is refreshingly straightforward too, and the property management actually responds when you need something. Small things, but they add up when you’re trying to enjoy your stay rather than stress about logistics.

Why Guests Love It

That 8.9 overall rating reflects what you experience day-to-day here — everything just works without fuss. The apartment gives you independence when you want it, but you’re still close enough to duck out for dinner or drinks in Braddon’s buzzing scene. Couples particularly seem drawn to the combination of privacy and location, which makes sense when you see how the space flows and how easy it is to explore from here. It’s not trying to be the fanciest place in town, but it nails the fundamentals so well that you end up having a better time than you expected.

    Very comfortable, clean, good location and close to the convention we were attending in Braddon.

    What could be improved: Nothing. It was like a home away from home.

  • Enjoyable, great communication from managers. – Colin from Australia – 3 March 2025 (9/10)

    Great position, quiet neighbourhood, good size for 4 people

    What could be improved: A coffee machine and capsules or a coffee plunger and ground coffee would be a welcomed addition

  • Very comfortable with a great location – Paul from Australia – 15 February 2025 (9/10)

    The space was great to stretch out in. Felt like a home away from home

    What could be improved: No tea towel to wipe up with and the bed was a little firm for our liking. Bout otherwise was very comfortable with great location

  • Exceptional – Jackie from Australia – 16 January 2025 (10/10)

    The kitchen was my favourite!

    What could be improved: The bed needs a fitted sheet

  • Very pleasant. – Elizabeth from Australia – 7 November 2024 (8/10)

    Very nicely spacious apartment. Close to Canberra’s attractions.

  • We had a great stay in Canberra and this property suited us perfectly. – Dorothy from Australia – 2 November 2024 (8/10)

    Lovely apartment, exactly what we wanted for a couple with a friend from overseas. The apartment is spacious and modern and was clean and well presented when we arrived. The kitchen was well equiped. We liked the two bedrooms, two bathrooms. Lock up garage was great. Close to public transport which is currently free of charge.

    What could be improved: We were not familiar with Canberra, so having to find a seperate address to get the keys wasn’t ideal. When we located the key safe, it didn’t open and we had to ring the agent for help. The agents were responsive and assisted us. Not sure why the key safe cannot be at the property. There are a lot of keys for this property and finding the right key for each lock takes time. (Even after 5 days)

  • Superb – Ian from Australia – 24 October 2024 (9/10)

    Conveniently located property with secure garage. Good rooms, 2 bathrooms.

    What could be improved: The key pickup had detailed instructions, but my satnav brought me around from a different direction, so I ended up parking then walking a block to find the lockbox room. Would be a lot easier if the lockbox was on site.

  • Very good – Sue from Australia – 2 October 2024 (8/10)

    Plenty of space for two people.
    Comfortable bed.

    What could be improved: The toilet in the bathroom makes a noise.
    The rippled bottom frying pans.
    Unable to open the window in the second bedroom.

  • Very good – Frank from Australia – 8 September 2024 (8/10)

    The apartment was delightful. Set in a quiet, centrally located part of Canberra.

    What could be improved: The process for getting the front door key was unnecessarily complicated. It was obvious that the owners of the apartment wanted to eliminate human contact. Not a good idea! A smiling face makes all the difference!
