Budget accomodation at a premium price.
Pros:

The staff managing the place were fabulous. So friendly and helpful. And so were the cleaning staff.

Cons:

Look it is super budget- but at a premium price. Things like lamps being there but not actually being connected to a power point. The hot water didn’t work in one of the units (luckily we had 2 so just used the other), blankets not quite being large enough to cover the bed once you got in, clean enough but sort of dingy feeling that sort of thing. If this had been half the price I would have understood and just accepted it.

Very convenient stop mid trip. Had everything we needed and was very clean and comfortable.
Pros:

Very clean and comfortable. Owners Chris and Cathy were lovely and so helpful. They went out of their way to provide us with urgent accommodation with very short notice and at a very busy time.

Cons:

No complaints at all

Overall was a great relaxed stay with a “boho” vibe. Would stay again
Pros:

Nice, relaxed space. Has a good vibe. Different to a stock standard motel room. Friendly staff

Cons:

No mirror in the bathroom. Some windows didn’t have fly screens and some parts of the park gardens are messy

Passable
Pros:

New cabin

Cons:

Perhaps vacuum the window sills to clean up the spider webs and bits of beetles. You could also clean off the beetle remains off the pillows. AC didn’t work. Having a shower with a slug in the morning was different
