The staff are friendly. It was well kept and maintained. I find most of the complaints irrelevant. The bath needs to be redone and the geyser was off when we got there, but otherwise all good.
Loved the place! Huge units and everything my partner and I wanted. Great service, lovely staff and neat. We'll be back.
Staff made us feel at home. And the silence, quiet, peace. Really a little home away from home. Next tie we come it'll be striclty be to relax and soak it all in by the pool We loved the place! The units are spacious, and it had everything my partner and I wanted. The service was excellent, the staff was lovely, and everything was neat and tidy. it was also nice to bump into fellow writers and musicians too
They are cheats.
The rooms were dusty.
Tubs were dirty.
They made us pay for items that were missing in the rooms when we checked in.
They are not honest people.
Made us pay double because they claimed our expedia booking had not gone through.
I would not recommend this property to anyone
