I felt most things in this property, from the kitchen, the furniture, the decking and the decking furniture were old tired and dated. There was no wardrobe, just a hanging rail on wheels, which had to be kept in the lounge due to lack of space in the bedroom. The pictures and the description on the site to not reflect and true condition of the apartment. I was really disappointed with the property.

Despite superficial cleaning, sadly the aged and and worn condition of the apartment (notwithstanding some decorating attempts) contributed to us feeling uncomfortable during our stay (particularly, the aged state of the kitchen cupboards and the shower) ... considering the cost of the accommodation. However, the apartment was spacious.

We thought for a fairly old facility that it offered real value for money & readily recommend it to travelers. The views from the front porch area out over the lake were first class & the table & chairs on the balcony create a real holiday atmosphere. The interior of the apartment are clean & neat & the kitchen is large by apartment standards.

The penthouse apartment was a fantastic place to stay! A easy 5 minute walk to a range of bars and restaurants and the lake. The accomodation was warm and comfortable (heat pump turned on for us) and the decor was amazing! Views to die for - must come back in summer when we can enjoy the deck!

Backpacker Deluxe

I would not call this accommodation a penthouse. A penthouse is a flat on the top floor of a tall building, typically one that is luxuriously fitted. It may have been on the top floor, but it stopped there. Unfortunately whoever did the renovation did it poorly. The floors were uneven and when you flushed the toilet the shower drain overflowed. I would unfortunately describe this accommodation as a Backpacker Deluxe.
