"A cool little place to hang out - lots of facilities and nice vibe." - Tina Leung
"We were very dissappointed on the cleanliness. We were in a double unit. Bed cover was dirty, shower wasn't clean, floor wasn't clean, otherwise it was a good place to stay - a little noisy but it was after all Friday night." - Anonymous
"The cleaners kept taking my stuff and I only got my bag back the night before I left and never got my food etc back, the staff did not make the situation any better." - Anonymous
"great location but that's about all there is to it. " - Anonymous
