The floor in the unit was dirty we had black feet in the first afternoon. The romote wasnt working properly. we had no condiments like salt or pepper,tomato sauce, butter sachets, biscuits would have been nice. we didnt have enough tea bags. we have tea for breakfast and tea. or even in afternoon when we get back from walking around town. The pool was dirty with tiles missing, I could have scratched my foot. or my elderly mother could have. on the bottom of the pool. It was expensive to not even have these things mentioned above.

Nice comfortable unit clean and practical for our 2 nights . Dryer wasn’t working and hung clothes on chairs on the balcony which flew off during the night . Second night was unsettling.. loud people on top of us and then evacuation alarm next door had us up from 3 am . Not Oaks fault but wasn’t the best stay I’ve had. Otherwise nice 😊
