8/10 Good

Liked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
Disliked: Check-in
It was difficult to find the property, the security guards at the entrance to the building it is in had not heard of Skyline and when we showed them the map to explain it was where we were, they were confused! Eventually we rang the owner who spoke to reception and realised it was there, they hadn’t heard of the company name! A half hour panic ended and we then enjoyed our stay!
