Highly recommend!
We arrived late at night on a late flight, but the room was already warm with the heater turned on, which was such a thoughtful touch. It made us feel very welcomed and allowed us to relax right away. The room was clean, cozy, and very comfortable. I had a great stay and would definitely come back again. Highly recommend!

Lovely spacious 1 bedroom unit, with full kitchen and a bath was a bonus! Top marks for allowing a 12.00 midday checkout at no extra cost. Unfortunately the cleanliness was a let down as was the faulty body wash and empty conditioner dispensers in shower. Overall was a nice 2 day stay and would return.
