Hey they are still great how they are but could be flasher."

"Enjoyed my short stay, very handy to supermarkets and within walking distance to centre of town, market and good bus service to C/cliff where I went to visit relatives."
"The property is undergoing renovations at the moment and the in-house restaurant is not available. We didn’t know this until check-in. The room was road facing/frontage, and traffic noise was ample. No lift/elevator available. Other than that, great stay. Would recommend. "
"Was a unique property almost like staying in the jungle with the city just behind you. Comfortable unit and excellent value for money. Great place to stay with children."
