Excellent value for money. Spotlessly clean with towels, fridge, kettle and even an espresso machine - very impressed! Even able to park the car for free! Can't understand why some people have left bad reviews - I'd stay again.

Do not mistake this site for anything other than a rooming house. This so very much misrepresented. It is not a hotel on any scale. We could not stay after having a look at the rooms. If you have asthma or an aversion to high humidity in your room. This is not the place for you. Very disappointed, didn’t stay and took the rental fee in the chin. Four of us researched the location, and we were all duped.

Everything is remote access codes for entry and reception which we didn’t get until we phoned at the front door. However access and room very good. Our room was above the front door which did seem to bang closed a lot. Neighbourhood was excellant and bus transport ample to town

Was ok for short stay, but wouldn’t stay long. No staff on site, but they respond quickly to messages and are helpful. As far as the room, the blinds were broken, the wood trim in the bathroom was rotted and you could hear every step from above room. Bed also wasn’t comfortable and had dips in it.

For the price paid, it should have been cleaner. And window only opened a few inches, which made the room very hot and uncountable to sleep.

The property is in a very nice location south of the city and there is several bus stops with in a 5-10 minute walk from the property. The rooms are ok, not bad but not really the cleanest. There is no staff on property except to clean up after checkout. The check in process is very easy without having staff on the property.

We arrived quite late, room had not been cleaned from previous guests’ stay. Bathroom and shower had hair in it. Bedsheets had been slept in. Carpet was filthy. Towel was folded but when opened had make up stains on it. Tried to email and call hotel no response until more than 12 hours later, with “sorry about the inconvenience “ they say security person is there, we saw no one. If you choose to stay, you need to request housekeeping prior to your arrival.

We checked in late at night and have first noticed the bathroom fan that was super loud. We tried closing the bathroom door, however the fan was on the whole night. In addition, another guest was able to enter our room and unlocked our door because the management 'mistakenly' gave 1 room to 2 different guests. I was already resting when I saw them open the door. In full shock that we had to ring the management that same night to move us to another room because of these 2 issues that happened within a span of 3 hours upon checking in. We demanded a refund due to this experience however this wasn't granted. Never got another room as they managed to fix the fan on our second night (out of 4 nights being there) therefore we had 2 sleepless nights because of the loud fan noise. Since they haven't moved us to another room, they have mentioned to change the locks as I expressed my concern about our security since knowing another guest knows the door code and was able to unlock this. Again, unfortunately they never changed this. The room and the location was alright. It's the experience that was disturbing and unsettling. Never got compensated for the bad experience despite raising concerns. A lot of room for customer service improvement here.

DIRTY- Terrible Experience. Wouldn’t recommend. On arrival we noticed that the carpet was filthy- I’m talking debris, fake eyelashes and new and old stains. Also the shower mat was folded away very wet. As you can see in the picture they ask you to email them if you want the room cleaned a day in advance. So we resigned ourselves and emailed. No response. Nobody came to clean. The second day we saw a cleaner working on the room next to ours, asked her if she could please JUST hover. Mind you it was a tiny room. She said yes and didn’t do it. Nobody came to clean or responded us in 3 days. Spring old mattress to make your experience a bit more tiring. And sink in the room, not inside the bathroom. Can hear other guests snore. Access to the guesthouse and room with codes so they don’t require staff- no one at reception when we arrived or in the mornings, regardless of what the information might say. A hostel would have been cleaner and cheaper for what we received.
