Overall, the property was really good. A couple of observations:
I was taken aback to discover used towels in one of the two bathrooms.
"Breakfast items" were listed in the description - these turned out to be four boxes of UHT milk and a couple of teabags and instant coffee sachets!

Convenient and comfortable
Everything was in tip top shape. The only monorail complaint was that the furniture in the living area was uncomfortable.
