We stayed for two nights in the two bedroom unit July 2024. So spacious, seperate fully equipped kitchen, large bathroom, big bedrooms (comfy beds!). Cleanliness was impressive (spotless!), lovely modern upgrades. Great parking. Owners are lovely. No need to look anywhere else, this is the one to book!
