The location is the only good thing about this stay. Property was under going painting inside. We werent told. The whole place smelt so bad of incense sticks, they are obviously trying to cover up the paint smell and the damp smell. Room was old, washing machine and dryer didn't work. Plug fittings falling off the wall. Just over all not happy with this stay

Do not order the breakfast as it will be the worst $20 you ever spend, as it is a tray of odds and ends they leave in your fridge when you book in. The bread was stale, also I don’t tend to eat potato chips (also stale) and chocolate bars for breakfast. The towels had stains and the toilet was broken, which happens, but as another room could not be supplied we ended up fixing this ourselves.

Great location, but the night we were there the bathroom smelt like there was a septic issue (sewerage smell), and the bed linen was a bit off. It was clean, but pillows smelt like other people and the sheets could've done with replacing - they were not fresh and crisp
