When we entered the apartment it was really filthy and stinky. At first we thought its the “rotorua” smell yet it was from the dirt in the apartment. The carpet was very dirty and was not vaccummed. It had reddish stains in particular areas around the house ( looked like blood stains which freaked us out!). The beds and sofas were full of crumbs and dirt. The toilet smelled bad and the toilet bowl was not cleaned. This place was really disappointing that we didnt spend the night in there, instead we slept in our car.

Could do better

Adequate but not great. The property is very tired. I believe that it has just changed ownership so the new owners are trying to get up to speed. The switches were very confusing and could do with some labels. Didn't realise we had the fridge switches off for a while.
