    The apartment was great and just what we needed with the little open plan kitchen and lounge. Nice and comfortable for our own small prepared breakfasts. Great location. Parking is best a little down the road, it is safe and quite cheap for 24 hours, we dropped our bags at the property and then went to park the car in the carpark.
