"Positive: Spacious, neat, all the necessary items for a comfortable stay was provided. Negative: Nothing"
"Positive: The house was great, location was excellent, great for kids with park and play ground in it right across the road. Nice and quiet suburb, plenty of room in the house and close to all shops. Negative: A couple of beds were low to the ground and quiet hard."
"Positive: It was very homey and comfortable, good place to stay Negative: The bins out the front were full on our arrival and stunk up the front of the house, the heater was also making loud obnoxious noises when we turned it on so we weren’t able to use that."
