I liked this property. The room was nice and big and clean. The neighbourhood was easy to navigate. The only significant complaint is that the water pressure in the shower was absolutely terrible - turning up the water for pressure also meant turning up the temperature of the water so the options were trickling and cold or reasonable pressure and boiling. It hasn't deterred me from rebooking - hopefully it is just a problem in that particular room

The property was fine. I know it's probably hard to retrofit, but pool and hot tub would be nice.

Overall the property was good; however, the bed mattress in the bedroom was warped and the gym could have had more equipment options. Out of two treadmills, one was broken.
