Pros:

The check in experience was smooth.
Keypad entry was provided to accommodate my late arrival. Property was safe and secure.
The place was huge, fully furnished and had great facilities. The location was central to everything. The bathroom and shower was amazing

Cons:

Only issue i had was the curtain upstairs was damaged and I was working night shift so during the day while I tried to sleep I couldnt make it dark enough. But that shouldn't impact anybody else when staying there as I was operating on an unorthodox time schedule.
