We found the car park and were disappointed at the rubbish (probably not the right description) left lying around, looked like a dump area, path to unit was not bad in daylight but at night was a bit difficult to navigate, there were some lights but it was clear the owners hadnt used this area in the dark to see what clients see when they arrive. We gained access without difficulty but the decked area you access from had no railing and the steps were off to the side, bit weird and not the safest. Once inside the room was nice and roomy, it was clean, the bed was horrendous, hard with only 1 pillow was not very inviting, a mattress topper would make a difference but the mattress was like sleeping in a swag. The bathroom had a shower over a corner spa, im not sure why this seems like a good idea, very slippery,water goes everywhere and trying to climb out after a shower is difficult unless you have very long legs, i had to vend over to grip the side of the bath and i slipped and ended up with a decent bruise on my thigh. The outside deck where you can sit and enjoy the view was strange, no divide between the unit next dior or the house on the other side, we had the neighbours turn up looking for an entry to their unit, the units are noisy, you can hear the people (kids) in next unit yelling and screaming, thumping through the room. We have stayed in a lot of accommodation whilst away and im sorry to say this stay was the ost memorable for all the wrong reasons, i couldnt reco
