Good property, close to town
Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024

Home that you share with other renters including sharing the washing machine. There was no dryer. The location to the freeway can be a bit noisy for the upstairs tenants. The bathroom/shower layout was unique. If you are looking for a home to relax at and hangout, this might not be the right property for you.

Never take things at face value in this property. While the chairs look comfy the recliner function is broken. Tv kept resetting while trying to login to apps. Shower pressure is terrible. Mould on bathroom roof. Window latches don’t work properly so when the wind blew so did the windows. Only 1 mirror. Large gaps under doors. Luckily we were often out and about. The one good factor was the beds were comfy. If you want to relax at home, book elsewhere.
