"Room was clean, modern with fresh sheets, but noisy fridge and it didn’t cool properly. Pool was great but the bbq area was filthy so we couldn’t use. Dryer was advertised as free but just didn’t work. Outside laundry space to hang clothes was over a dirty wastewater pit. Location was great and in the heart of town. Front desk although said it waa open 7-7 was not manned. However we did have a lovely chat with one of the staff there who helped us when our key card decided not too work"

"Great location allowed you to cook The location was fantastic and the accommodation had everything we needed for a really comfortable stay. We especially loved having the option to cook for ourselves, which made it feel very relaxed and convenient. The pool area was a real highlight and being located right next to it made it even better. Our balcony was also a lovely feature — the perfect place to sit in the evening with a drink, unwind after the day and watch the beautiful sunset. Overall, it was a very enjoyable stay with a great combination of location, comfort and facilities. We would definitely recommend it and would happily stay again. etc next to pool area great balcony for evening drinks and soak in sunset"
