  : Spacious for 2 people, For the most part clean although there were a couple of places that could use addition attention. I suggest replacing the shower curtain and removing the mold at the top of the tub - shower surround. Location for us was good, near business location trip was booked for.
  : Shower curtain, soap scum, get rid of it, put a cheap one every booking Paint bathroom walls. I'm a building contractor, the rear entry door lock was installed in correctly, the door strike bolt was put in backwards. The door was impossible to close and when you did get it closed it didn't lock, even though you set the lock correctly all you had to do was apply a little pressure on the door and it opened. Fortunately I had tools on my truck, I was able the reinstall it correctly, but the dead bolt will not engage, thats someone else problem. The kitchen layout is a little awkward but this was only a minor inconvenience. Decent place for the money, the fees are way to high.

Very Good

  : Common area was very well appointed. Comfortable couch and chairs and the kitchen was immaculate with nice fridge dishwasher and gas stove. Easy drive to all local spots. AC wall units cooled us off. Flooring was nice and clean in all rooms.
  : Twin mattresses and comforters need replacing immediately. Very old. That’s small money to make the place much more desirable. My queen room was comfy but needs something like a wall hook to hang up a dress on a hanger. There was nothing. And no mirror. 2 out of 3 Ceiling fans were broken.

Fair

  : Good size 2 bedroom unit.
  : Location was hard to find. Some buildings do not has building/unit numbers so it is had to identify since there are many buildings on the lot. the master bedroom bed has sharp corner which cut my leg.

  : The duplex unit was clean and basics (shampoo, towels, cutlery, pots, pans etc.) were being provided as were a dishwasher and a coffee machine. Nice little unit with Wifi and two separate bedrooms, a living room with kitchen and a medium dining table. Agency who handles this unit was very courteous and friendly and tried everything to make this work.
  : Accommodation was described as "cottage" which is misleading. It's a duplex with a separate entrance but a wall-to-wall connection to the neighbor. The walls are pretty thin. Neighbor was lovely but we could hear his phonecalls/TV and vice versa. Not what we expected by the description provided and we would have not booked this accommodation if we would have known. The unit was difficult to find in the dark. No signage apart from on the cottage itself. Pots and pans were dirty and had to be cleaned. Towel rack fell apart. Shower stream was piercing and could not be adjusted to anything else. Information in regards to pets was conflicting and it was impossible to get hold of the property manager despite several attempts by the agency. So being told three days before arrival (and already being on the way!) that we might not be able to stay there although we had a confirmed reservation in that regard was upsetting, to say the least. For all of the above mentioned reasons we cut our stay short (one night only) and found alternative accommodation.
