Instructions via email was clear which room was ours and how to enter the room. Unit was clean and spacious. Close to New World, walking distance. Only downside, it is very noisy with the traffic at night on the main road.

This was excellent value for the price. It was actually a holiday home. We booked for 3 people however the place slept 12. The manager opened a second room for us to accommodate our daughter even though not required to. Friendly and very clean.

Loved this property, we had enough room for everybody, each room had its own aircon and tv and we could also watch Netflix on their accounts, each room had their own account which was awesome if you didnt want to watch the same thing, the only thing they need is a clothes horse or clothes line to hang clothes after using their washing machine.
