Fine for what I needed. Wouldn’t live to spend more than 2 nights.
Pros:

Easy free shuttle to and from airport.

Cons:

Reception could have given more instructions on how to find my room and get into the building next door. Was slightly confusing on how where to go as the signage is unclear.

No care for presentation nor the thought of comfort was given.
Pros:

The location is close to the Airport and the staff are always hospitable.

Cons:

The carpet was drenched wet from the front door area right up until the room entrance way, which made the room smell musty and paru. Heaters with no wheels placed in the room were looking like misplaced objects just chucked in the room and dirty mattress protectors masked as a blanket inner of sorts under the top sheet.

Pros:

I liked that it was quiet and the bed was somewhat comfortable.
Low cost.

Cons:

Well where to start and where to finish.
Ive stayed in cleaner camp grounds.
From the moment I arrived to our departure I was uneasy about everything and nearly booked elsewhere.
No laundry facilities available theyre out of order.
Pool water is green but maybe it's not the season for it to be used anyway
Lots of damp diffrent smells.
Lots of broken things around the room including window latches ect
Wifi glitches so it cant really be used to work from or watch a movie.

Disappointed
Pros:

The convenience of being close to everything needed and the bed was comfortable.
Price was super cheap, but no i understand why.

Cons:

The dirty kitchenette counter, floors and cupboards, carpet in hallway outside my room was soaking wet, cups were dirty, no hand towels or flannels. 2 towels that were stained, chairs in living area that were all broken and wobbly, shower head had mold on it, no blankets on bed, just 3 sheets. Room was so cold. Staff weren't helpful when trying to find my room, then finding out it was in the neighboring building and yet still no one to help me find where exactly I was sleeping. Was so very confusing.
