The place was actually really nice, but it could definitely do with a good clean before guests arrive. The cups were all stained, the screen door didn’t close or lock fully and there were cobwebs around the windows and at the seating on the veranda. The TV didn’t work and the batteries were all rusted. If the little things were fixed and cleaned, it would have got a 5 star rating.

There were various bugs/inspects in the beds, benches, drawers. Cups were particularly dirty (didn't look washed at all). The fact some windows wouldn't close completely and didn't have fly-wire screens probably contributed to the bugs.

This place could be amazing. However, a lack of maintenance and upkeep lets it down badly. The property is off the main road and the first sign is hidden behind a shrub. When you arrive, the rooms are hard to find because there are no signs to the different rooms. On arrival, we had to ring the manager (there is no reception on site) to find out which was our allocated room - they were unaware of our booking because they hadnt checked their booking system for half a day. once we found the room, we found that the sliding glass dorr could not be locked - had a bodgy metal plate with a pin lock but it was out of alignment. Paint peeling, dirty cushions on the lounge, a toilet that takes 2 minutes to refill in the middle of the night, noisy air con, grounds generally not mowed - not sure what the collection of junk was in the enclosure below the pool. Alsynite sheeting blowing off one room nearby. So much potential but clearly no interest from the management / owner to develop that potential or to even tidy the rooms up a little. So sad to see such a great place falling apart through a lack of care.

Cute and cosy

The location of the resort was amazing and the views from the cottage is breathtaking. Also, the close proximity of the city centre and nearby attractions is an added advantage. However, the place itself was slightly worn down. We noticed that it wasnt thoroughly cleaned when we arrived. The sheets had been changed and that was pretty much it. We enjoyed our stay there; however a quick vaccum and mopping before would have been even nicer. Overall, it is budget friendly and in a perfect location.

Overall, the property was tired and unkept. The cleanliness of the room was unsatisfactory. The sofa bed had hair and other dirt on it and old food underneath. We all slept in the bed instead. There was a lot of dirt on the floor. There were exposed wires on the lamp and broken globe. The fly screen would not close on the deck and door to the deck did not lock. Positives were the location, which was great and the size and comfort of the bed. Although there were no staff on site at all, staff were contactable by phone and polite.
