The wifi was really bad as it kept disconnecting and to make it worse the location had bad mobile coverage so even using data was a nightmare. You couldn’t do a number 2 without blocking the toilet. They had a small playground of 2 swings which was falling a part. It does the job for somewhere to sleep at least.

The toilet, bedding and kitchen utensils were not cleaned. There was only 1 small portable heater for the whole 2 bedroom apartment. Beds were not comfortable to sleep on. I don’t recommend this lodge and will not come back again.

DO NOT STAY HERE! Used as emergency housing. We were kept awake by the unit above us with yelling and swearing then woken up at 3.30am with rap music blaring for a whole hour. Will never stay here again.

This property was okay, and kept clean. The cleaning staff were friendly. Unfortunately our TV and oven didn't work and with no staff onsite it is a bit slower to sort.

Surprising.
Honestly i was very concerned from the previous reviews. However check in was easy as we were arriving late and we were emailed previously about instructions. The room catered for our needs, plenty of beds. Great location.
