Great walking tracks, sporting and library facilities close by. Unit itself had stained carpet and a bedroom air conditioner that was so loud it prevented sleep. Light shines through the bedroom window due to very bright all night lights on outside verandah. The unit looks tired and dated.

Privacy May Be an Issue for You

I value my privacy which is the main reason I choose to stay in apartments rather than in hotels or with family and friends. I was not impressed by having a group of strangers uninvited walk into my apartment at 8:45 am, without knocking, and without any valid cause - I was just getting out of the shower when I heard them in the corridor and had a few seconds to wrap a towel around my waist. On another point of security, there should be a safe provided in the rooms for laptops, cameras and passports etc.

Efficient apartment close to everything we were interested in. Nice to have a washer & dryer but instructions on how to work them would have been appreciated. Had to learn by trial and error. Appreciated the on-site parking but next time we will rent a smaller vehicle. Our large car was a tight fit. Also appreciated the extensive walking paths near the facility. We took long walks every day.
