We stayed 3 nights in a 2 bedroom apartment and enjoyed the Main Street location which encouraged us to walk every where The bed was very comfortable and the apartment was warm However I would not like to stay here in summer time as the main bedroom did not have any fan or air conditioner A rug on the lounge and a foot stool would be a nice addition

“Great accommodation option”

Handy location very close to dining options and shops. Huge, well appointed apartment in great condition. Undercover parking. Easy check-in after hours and friendly staff on check-out. Good value.

“Don't book the one-bedroom apartments”

The apartments are handily located near the main street and restaurants, and a short walk to the river. We originally booked a one-bedroom apartment for three nights.

The apartments are handily located near the main street and restaurants, and a short walk to the river. We originally booked a one-bedroom apartment for three nights. I don't know what they are all like, but ours was in a row where the one-bedroom apartments are on the ground floor, boxed in behind a massive roller-door garage, and there is a bigger apartment upstairs. The apartment was very small indeed, and there was inadequate cutlery etc. Outside there was a small unswept terrace with a fence overshadowed by what looked like a giant steel shed. This was not consistent with the images on the web site. Also, the locks were very dodgy, and I heard the upstairs people struggling with their door too. The shower leaked. As I am claustrophobic, I was unable to stay more than one night. The receptionist said she could not contact the owners when we asked if there another apartment that was available. To be fair, by lunchtime she had done so, and we were moved to a nice two-bedroom apartment with a great outlook from the living area (but there was frosted glass in the bedroom windows which isn't great when you are claustrophobic). This apartment was well equipped, and I would stay there again. It was cold though, with the reverse cycle air-conditioner inadequate for the space. In the winter maybe they bring in portable heaters. (At least the small apartments had panel heaters that worked well). There was a dishwasher and a washing machine. So, I would definitely advise against the one-bedroom apartments.

“Small and noisy with upper floor guests and a/c compressors that spoilt our stay.”

These one bedroom apartments are very compact. While they have almost everythin for a self contained short stay there is not not room even to open two small cabin cases. Our room on the ground floor was clean and modern. Basic needs for limited cooking, small fridge, table and chairs, and a sink. … more

These one bedroom apartments are very compact. While they have almost everythin for a self contained short stay there is not not room even to open two small cabin cases. Our room on the ground floor was clean and modern. Basic needs for limited cooking, small fridge, table and chairs, and a sink. There was a tiny courtyard which housed two a/c compressors. At night there was an annoying amount of noise from the upstairs apartment which had children running around till late at night. A creaking upper floor disturbed our sleep too. We mentioned this to recetion the following morning but the young receptionist refused to either move us or ask the noisy guests to quieten down at night. This disappointed greatly and we would not return here
