Jun 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Would book again! The property is exactly as it looks in the pictures. It contained everything we needed. Great location. There was a mix up with the check in and because the only way to contact the host was via message it was a bit stressful. Not how you want to start your holiday. I received a text but the text then did not have a return facility. It would be so much better to have a simple phone number I could call. Having said all this I would have no hesitation in booking the apartment again. It was ideal for my friend and I as we both had our own room and a bathroom each. We enjoyed our stay very much. ##### Bernadette M. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Terri C. Aug 31, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location clean property Everything you need is in the unit the property is very clean and well maintained The unit isn’t part of the hotel so you can’t have luggage stored if you have a late flight which is inconvenient Otherwise fantastic ##### Terri C. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Suzana B., Australia Feb 23, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great service and very easy communication Great property loved the little items like tea coffeee, shampoo, toilet paper body wash very helpful. Stove could have been cleaned better and outside furniture was white and hard to keep clean but was dirty when we arrived . Also a coffee table outside would be great to have tea coffee nibbles. The two foot stools were not very sterdy . But thank you will come back again and honours assisted in inextending our checkout thank you we will be back 👍 ##### Suzana B.
