This is a pretty ordinary place. Very dated. Our room (10) was very dirty. Grime/grease on the curtain draw cords and kitchen cupboard handles. One white wall has plenty of dirt/use markings all over it. Considering the price, I expected a lot better.

convenient location, comfy bed
Excellent communication. Apartments have all the usual amenities although I didn't utilise most, Tv in bedroom and also main area. Large size fridge. Parking off street, could be a tad tight if all were used, which they weren't when I stayed. Best part was the comfortable bed.
