Room was super clean, location was great only about a 15 minute walk down to the lake and restaurants. The AC was strong and we slept very well as the beds were super comfortable. Would highly recommend!
Great apartment, beds are comfortable. But the shower Is very small and hard to turn around. A bit pricey.

While the rooms were clean we discovered that the shower curtain was covered in brown soap slime for the bottom 200mm. I was able to wipe it off with my hand and then onto hand towel leaving a brown stain. It was gross. The tap over the hand basin was loose and able to be moved around. It made us wonder how dirty the room was that we couldn't see. I sent an email to management and never heard back.
