We spent one night in the one bedroom unit (upstairs bedroom, downstairs kitchenette and additional bed). Overall, the feel is that of a budget motel. No 'Suisse' feel at all, apart from perhaps the outside facade, which really needs a cosmetic overhaul. Nice spa pool and a decent size outdoor pool. Interaction with owner operators (?) was very brief and fairly matter of fact. No friendly 'where have you guys come from' or other pleasantries that make guests feel welcome. Walls to adjoining units very thin, we heard the neighbours shouting at 4am as if they were in our unit. Parking is very tight with little room to manoevre.

Paid over $200 for a night for apartment that had very wet and damp carpet upstairs in the bedroom, big area, Apartment 12. Absolutely stunk, and at 10pm was too late to ring to change it. Management admit there was a roof leak 2 days prior and still let it out in that condition, which is not on. After complaining in the morning, was told manager not there and would ring me, i had to ring him at 7pm that night as no follow up and he begrudgingly gave us a $50 discount. The apartment should not have been made available, but clearly was, and was not fit for purpose at all.
