"Room was clean and tidy. However the drive way was so steep that our standard Corolla grounded so hard we had to park at the McDonald’s next door a higher SUV tho would be ok can I suggest that if possible the top of the drive be flattened a bit. The house was very good value and the instructions spot on so aside from the drive a very good value for money stay Thanks"

10/10 Excellent

For $15 usd, cant beat it. Clean, quiet, friendly. Even offered extension cords for charging in the bed, a fan, full kitchen use, and a place to lock your things so you dont have to worry about roomies with sticky fingers. Its downtown so convenient for going out for a walk, movie, shopping, but sometimes parking is a litrle harder. Had to park around the block. No biggie.
