Staff were super nice and helpful. Our one bedroom had everything we needed. It was a bit dated with things like the top sheet having a stain and the shower door not sealing properly. It was an amazing price for all we got in a nice neighbourhood.

Lots of parking but most on a steep hill, building was ok, a touch dated but priced accordingly. Tried to add a night onto tail end of stay but rate was 1.5x what we had paid originally so did not extend the stay. Would stay again, great view from the 2 bed unit

Very spacious, modern, clean and quiet. Also beds were super comfortable (and both large, rather than the more typical 1 queen/1 twin). Also free parking! Only disadvantage was distance from CBD.
