Pros:

We loved the code to get in the door and the heat pump was on to warm the room for us, clean, close to train station.Comfortable.

Cons:

I don't like that there are only those little milks, be good to either leave more of them or a 500ml

Pros:

Spacious, warm and an excellent location with a 15min to Armstrong street.

Cons:

Facilities like the kitchenette equipment can use an upgrade. Things felt cheap, however the price of accommodation kind of reflects what you get

Would not reccommend to anyone. Its so cold inside house, heater working but cant warm inside.
Pros:

Room was so cold, heater not working. Room could not get cozy if when heater was working, room is constructed in such a way that heater could not make it cozy. Such a waste to book it at that price and my child got sick due to cold.

Cons:

Environment inside house. High ceiling, cheap heater.

It’ll do.
Pros:

Good location in close proximity to the train station and the city centre. Free parking was great!

Cons:

Rooms are not at all sound proof. Couple next door had a very active and very loud love life the first night I was there which resulted in very little sleep. Shower in the bathroom was gross. The floor never fully dries, the seals need to be redone and there was limestone build up and mould in places. The door to the bathroom also only opened 70% of the way. The bed was not very comfortable but my main problem was the noise.
