Seamless check-in but the room needed a serious upgrade. Heat pump struggled to work, fridge froze our milk, and the condition of the room was not worth what we paid. Ok if there’s nowhere else to stay.

Even though the unit is dated and would benefit hugely with $ spent to upgrade them, they were clean, with all amenities supplied and helpful staff.

Plenty of parking. The old house that I was in was run down and cold. The unprofessionally laid carpet was a tripping point and the doors were hard to close. Amateurish repairs were evident in many areas.
