It's conveniently located, has a great kitchen, and is clean and quiet. Extra layers were provided for my bed on the cold Dunedin nights.

Interesting themes were good,

Concerned about carpet on stairs quite tatty and worn. Could pose hazzard could get a heel court on its and trip. Needs repairs and those plastic with metal heal strip fitted. 2nd floor shower heads very poor condition. Parking very hard to get. Third flor stairwell door very hard to maneuver special with bags a 2 way or sliding door would be safer. 9
