Excellent location with free parking and well appointed apartment
Pros:

Location is excellent next to Cataract Gorge. The apartment had everything that we needed. We had no issues . Everyone does their job well without imposing on I s during our stay.

Cons:

We have been here before. This time we had an upstairs apartment. I would have preferred ground floor but it wasn't an issue.

Great place to stay.
Pros:

Location was great. Loved being so close to Cataract Gorge. Although a hiccup with checking in, we were given an upgrade and a bottle of wine as an apology. Totally unexpected but gratefully received.

Disappointing
Pros:

Location is great, beautiful facilities and Outlook.

Cons:

Noise control is very poor. It ruined our stay. Supplying earplugs is a poor way of noise prevention. An upgrade of double glazed windows is needed especially if you are having parties with loud DJ music.
