Toilet needed a new lid/top or needed adjustment. Showerhead wouldn't stay up and needs repairs. Shower screen door needs adjusting. Would have been better if there were bowls and plates and knife and forks.

I transferred $200 as security straight to the lady in receptions account as was having technical problems doing it by card. Was told it would be transferred straight back into my account on departure. I saw her when leaving and she said she'd transfer it that morning. Haven't heard or received anything a day later. Payment can't be pending as I transferred to her already and we both use the same bank.

The rooms have been done up and are clean and new. The beds were like sleeping on the floor. The mattresses were seriously like boards. So uncomfortable. Great location, plenty of parking.
