"Surface Clean", but still generally dirty. Had to keep resetting the cistern in the toilet to keep it from continually running. Property next door is horrendous, thankfully it can only be seen out the back windows. Chairs were uncomfortable, beds moved so you couldn't sit up in bed and pillows were awful.

Good laundry facilities & bonus of a swimming pool & spa. Separate room for adults sleeping. A little outdated in apartment but functional. Would benefit from a clothes line on balcony or airer to dry swimming togs (eco friendlier).
