"The unit is spacious with 2 balconies. However, there were no sheets to make up the couch (listed as another sleeping option) and the floor had footprints on it, indicating the floor had been unmopped between occupants. The inside of the couch had wood chips and shavings from its particleboard construction (which were all over the blankets it contained) which would’ve been simple to vacuum — but wasn’t. These are all easy fixes the management of this property could do to increase the quality of the property."

"Old town location. Parking lots are close to the hotel(150m walk to StS lots). Front desk staff were helpful. Good free beakfast. Beds were comfy. Housekeeping could do better, our bathtub had a bath ring, needs a good scrub! Asked staff to put our beds together to make up as a double and they didn't bother. Both nights we came back after a days out onbtours and the patio door was left open so we weren't happy with that."
