Great location, value for money, nice facilities, room needs a few improvements and it will be perf.
Pros:

We liked the location, easy access, car parking was good. Value for money, the room had what we needed.

Cons:

The shower and vanity good do with some Exit mould sprayed and cleaned properly. The master bed is in desperate need of a new mattress and the knives were horrendously blunt and we couldnt cut fruit or veggies. The ceiling fan in the 2nd bedroom doesn't work very well either.

Good location, easy stay.
Pros:

Stayed in room 18 which was great since its bottom floor and no elevators was right in front of the pool which was good for kids.
Easy car parking no hassles.
Pool is nice and well kept.

Cons:

All curtains need a good scrub.
Internet turns off and on 24/7 can’t even watch a full movie. Have to switch the television off and on re connect every 30 minutes.
Vacuum is old and doesn’t work so makes it hard to actually clean the floors, no cleaning supply’s
I suggest packing extra toilet paper, cleaning spray , washing powder, cloths.
Shower screen is broken over the bath.
Seen someone in reception once in the entire 9 days of stay.

We had unit 13 which was so clean and bright. We stayed for a week. Absolutely loved it. Bonus it’s on the ground floor. Kids loved the pool and so close to everything. Good car park too, easy access to unit from car park. Very comfortable accomodation. My family loved it. Thank you Mari court!

There was nothing to fault.
