Cons:

Parking area needs to be properly designated, we got parked in and needed to knock on the doors of the other guests to move their vehicle.

Pros:

Auto konnte sicher geparkt werden. Schnelle Kommunikation mit Vermieterin.

Cons:

Heruntergekommene, alte sowie schmutzige Unterkunft. Für um die 50€ kann man wohl in diesem Land nicht mehr erwarten.

19 On Cathcart- Appalling!! Disgraceful
Pros:

Nothing!!
Moved from this property i booked to 19 On Cathcart without my permission or choice.

Cons:

Poor management. I had booked 21 On Cathcart a 2 bed 2 bath villa, for our family, 4 months prior to our stay & liased
monthly with 'owner' to ensure our booking was secure. Only to be told the day before our arrival that we'd been "UPGRADED" to 2 x executive luxury suites, at a completely different property, 19 On Cathcart, which i said I did not want as id booked the modern family villa & this booking had been confirmed many times. No option given to us upon arrival, as the manager we found out, had given our booking to some one else & just moved us in to the property next door. Upgrade - that a lie - Disgraceful!
Booking.com should re look at this property we were given - SHOCKING! This type of treatment of clients should be condoned & property removed off site - Booking.com i would strongly suggest you look in to the people running these two properties as they are on a completely different level. Down grade or de list 19

Pros:

The bed was extremely comfortable

Cons:

Check in staff weren't the friendliest.
Parking is an issue with the place, you need to make sure you park out of the way to not block anyone in.
The staff were very noisy in the morning, we couldn't sleep in. General noise level was high in the evenings too from the other rooms.
Netflix wasn't working
