“It was good value for money, good space and great location.”
+Good value for money. Had the basics we needed. Clean and near essential places.
−Just no chrome cast to cast anything to the TV to watch.

“Overall, we had a good stay. Had all that we needed for our 1 night stay. Really lived up to the mini mansion name 😁”
+It was convenient for our little family. The home was clean and tidy.
−The construction happening next door making the house move, felt like a long earthquake. Would have been good with a heads up regarding construction work.

“Yeah Pap things”
+I liked the house I didn’t realise to was an off house to a main house . I liked that there was 4 towels given we only used 3 . I enjoyed the washing machine and dyer which had washing powder provided also . Which was good .i liked the fact that they had ample of cups and plates .
−The beds were not the best . Hard and not really strong felt like I couldn’t move too much on them the pillows were super big to where we couldn’t use them . The pillows and sheets and blankets had a smell like they have not been washed which is my biggest ick . And they weren’t matching . We had leopard sheets which I would prefer white . The wifi was soooo not good . I was working and couldn’t even load documents made my working extra long . The walls could do with a scrubbing too which the amount of cleaning rules you would expect them to lead by example.

“Disappointing”
+The communication from the owners was quick and efficient. There were many PowerPoints in the property. The washer and dryer inside worked well and proved to be helpful. The owners allowed us to check in early and out late which was amazing.
−The property was run down and pictures online didn’t accurately depict what it was like. Dirty and damaged walls, mould in shower in silicone and grout, old linen in beds which were hard and uncomfortable. Dirty marks on doors and handles, the property shook and vibrated due to construction occurring next door. Tiles in the kitchen were stuck on. Stale cereal in the food dispensers which we dare not eat. There were empty cleaning products and dirty cleaning brushes in the main bathroom cupboard. Overall it seems the property had been poorly constructed and not cared for properly. Was disappointing.

“Good location near airport if you don’t mind a few rough edges. I wish the property was presented a bit tidier…”
+Great location near airport
−A small selection of breakfast cereals were provided however there was a cockroach in the dispenser and there were a few ants around too. The property could benefit from a general spruce up.

+Beautiful little house. Nice and cozy.. comfortable beds
−I will be totally honest.. Said plenty of parking on the road... I had to park down the road 2 houses from mini mansion.. really didn't like that. The walls have dirty marks everywhere on the house. The doors. Please wipe them clean. The towels have a bad smell to them please sort that out for future. There was no coffee or milk available. Other than that was ok There was rubbish under the beds
