+Breakfast was included which was a good perk and staff at reception were very friendly and helpful.
−Room wasn't very clean, blood on the floor and in the bathroom was there for the two days, cleaner came in to clean, she went into the bathroom picked up a towel and then left. She didn't clean anything but signed the cleaning sheet to say she did. I was in a 12 bed dorm with 1 shared bathroom so it needed a proper clean every time. It wasn't great. No real seating area outside except the connected pool area that you had to pay to be in.

“Spacious, friendly, comfortable, beautiful place at a central location.”
+We had an unreal stay here. The private room was very spacious, clean, well equipped, and had a lovely large balcony, kitchenette, dining table, sofa, good sized bed with comfortable, crisp, sheets, and a bath! 🫧 I love the renovations they’ve done, the landscaping and sculptures out the front.🌿 We appreciated the parking space, and the kindness of the warm, friendly Kiwi on the front desk, who helped us with our check in.
−Everything was pretty wonderful.

“Ok for a short trip”
+Good location.
−Rooms are very basic. Big draught coming from under the door. Bathroom smells like mould. Advertised free breakfast but its only cereal. You can use kitchen and own ingredients to make breakfast.

“Incredible location and a very comfortable place to stay.”
−Too much light is coming into the bedroom at night. You should put curtains over the windows.

+Det var lækkert med mega mange fede faciliteter og aktiviteter alle dage, stort og lækkert køkken, og hyggelig værelser
−Hvis man skulle sætte fingeret på noget, hvilket man ikke bør, så var toiletterne ikke fuldstændig Ren hele tiden, men det er mere gæster end personalets skyld
