The property, as a whole, is very impressive. There appreared to be only one room option when booking but when I arrived, found that there were a number of options, including apartment-sized rooms. The decor and overal aesthetic was really appealing. The owner, who I chatted to on the phone, was really friendly. The property manager, Albert, was also welcoming and available whenever needed. Will definitely book here again, but this time I will do so via their direct website so that I can access the other room options.

My initial impression was that the pool was a private pool, but it is actually shared amongst the units. That really isn't a big issue, though. There was no aircon, but fans were provided. I prefer aircon on hot summer days, though. The specific room that we stayed in did not have a door to the bathroom. It was open plan. I prefer separation of bathrooms from the rest of the space.

The hot water in the shower comes and goes. The curtains are not very thick meaning the security light outside is a bit bothersome

Privacy and cleanliness

While showering water was boiling hot and hard to regulate to the correct temperature to take ashower. Just as I got this right, the hot water went off completely leaving me to finish my shower with ice cold water in an the wintery cold.

Very good self-catering amenities in the room. Easy access and in a quiet neighbourhood.

Parking was very restricted and the lack of privacy for the toilet was uncomfortable. The bed creaked quite badly on the left hand side.
