Very Good Featured review

The owner really impressed us by calling right away when we accidentally left our passports and wallet behind, and making sure everything got back to us safely. We’re very grateful for that honesty and care. The room was quiet, spotless, and felt secure, with a super comfortable bed and a thoughtful electric blanket that made a cold night extra cosy. We had a wonderful stay and would gladly return. Highly recommend to anyone visiting!

Our shower was good, and it was an easy enough walk into town for food and other things. We were in the room closest to the road, though, and trucks made a lot of noise through the night.

The unit was well maintained, with clean towels and daily clearing. Parking was excellent, and the friendly staff were lovely. It’s close to the city centre.

Being able to do laundry here was a real plus. The accommodation was great overall, though sharing just one bathroom and toilet between six of us was the downside.

I feel completely ripped off. I had booked less than 48 hours earlier, then had to cancel because someone in my family became ill. I know I missed the free cancellation deadline by a few hours, but the manager wouldn't budge on the price and charged me $250. Some understanding would've been appreciated, and he still hasn't answered my email. Make sure you're certain before you book.
