Location wins on this one. Needs some maintenance
Pros:

Good location, free parking

Cons:

Images of room online did not match up to the room allocated. 1bedroom apartment had a couch that was more suited to a caravan, definitely not comfortable for 2 people to relax on. There was an offensive odour in the bathroom at times, smelt kind of like sewage or bore water
