Location perfect.
Pros:

Location excellent, very comfortable bed and pillows, linen clean. Sliding door opened onto a small verandah for fresh air, could open bedroom window for fresh air.

Cons:

Decor was tired looking, carpet very worn, no spare bin liners provided, saucepans old, frypan handle almost falling off. There was excessive party noise from a room in the building, no screens on sliding door or windows.
