A very warm and friendly welcome, 2 bedroom apartment was immaculate; it is on the corner of Madras and Bealey (very busy) but even though we are light sleepers, we slept like logs. Highly recommend and would happily stay again. Off street parking was great.
Really friendly worker - always a lovely touch when they remember your name the day after check in
Great bathtub, comfortable bed & pillows.
I was on the ground floor toward the roadside, bit noisy with road traffic but apart from that, everything g was great!
The property was very convenient to different dining locations and was very reasonably priced. The staff was very nice and helpful and the accommodations were clean and comfortable.
Clean modern hotel with very friendly owner/staff. Only draw back was limited food restaurants close by but easy enough to walk 20 minutes or so to more options. Would stay here again.
Convenient accommodation for a city trip. City centre is in walkable distance.
The rooms are clean and well equipped. It is not loud though it is located along a busy road.
Warm friendly welcome from host. Spotlessly clean unit with excellent fittings & amenities. Warm, sunny. Very comfortable bed with selection of pillows. Convenient laundry amenities. Would definitely come back & recommend to others.

Location is great. Clean and tidy. Staff very pleasant.
Could use a revamp and makeover, and as they state, noisy location beside busy road.
The rooms were clean, the staff were great. They were very accommodating to point out all facilities and offer any help if needed, and clear communication throughout for a late night check in and check out.
The only downside is it being so close to the main road the noise can be a bit much, but is to be expected before booking.
