Short break
Location was noisey, overall disappointing for the price. And the place was below par as far as cleaning goes. Venetian blinds are dirty. After making a phone call the PropertyManager called in to see us. She was very helpful and had great customer service skills.However I would not recommend this place to anyone.Very disappointing.

Sunnyark
Well appointed, clean, spacious. The location is extremely noisy, the shower has little pressure and goes hot and cold. The property manager seems to have no processes for dealing with bookings other tham direct with them, for example i booked through bookabach. They needlessly wasted a huge amount of my time. I won't be dealing with any property managed by Breakbach again.
