Pros:

The ground looked superb.

Cons:

The toilet smelled, and there was a backwash coming from the outlet pipe. The water turned poo colour after leaving the toilet for a while. The bath shower was dated and needs upgrading. It put me off wanting to shower in it. The outside of the unit was tatty, patchy, and looked tired and unpainted. The TV channels were limited, and reception was intermittent. I expected a lot more for $179.00 per night. Frankly, this is one of the worst value for money, accommodation I have ever had. It's probably not the worst, but it is up there with the worst.
