    The only thing I would mention is the air-conditioning low range was 20deg on cool. I couldn't go any lower and sometimes for some reason it was still quite hot. The only thing that wasn't supplied was shampoo and conditioner.

    Very well equipped kitchen. Clean. Comfy. Had bread, butter, milk and condiments supplied! Even a couple beers and a bottle of wine which was a lovely surprise 😮. Great location, good for kids with pools, enclosed swimming, Ping pong, and basketball court in the precinct. Great bars and cafes, security patrolled at night and I felt very safe.

    The location was so handy for going to the Convention Centre and also the many eateries in easy walking distance. It was quiet and clean and had everything we required. The little extras were so welcome to help us get moving in the morning! Thank you so much for your hospitality. Also highly recommend if you need a place to stay before boarding a cruise.

    The only (very slight) issue was the shower flooding.

    Great secure location. Easy to find, parking undercover included. Very generous host had thought of everything. Made up sofa bed for me which was a bonus.

    It was my own fault, not reading the manager’s instructions properly. But I was expecting a hotel, so couldn’t find it initially. Then read the instructions eventually and found the apartment, keys in mailbox etc, no issues.

    Very well located, spacious, everything that you need for a short or longer stay for a couple or small family. Even provided bread for the next morning and fridge was full of drinks if needed, very thoughtful.
