Great area and building. Well fitted out. Advertised as 3 bedrooms with beds described and linen supplied. Third bedroom did not have linen supplied. Communication poor - came back with replies that make me assume AI chat bot in use. Tried to give feedback by calling and messaging , no reply.

This property was listed as a 3 bedroom house. But there was no bedding for the third bedroom with its trundle bed. When I queried this with the property manager I was told that it wasnt advertised as a 3 bedroom place (not true). As we were 3 older women this was very disappointing.Also they really need a hard copy of material about the property and the neighbourhood ot a reference to some web site. Its a well located property but providing bedding for the 3rd bedroom is not too much to ask for.
