This was so soo perfect for my friend and I just needing somewhere to lay our heads after a massive hens weekend in Glenelg. Such a convenient location, super affordable and the customer service was fantastic but guuuuys don’t book it if you’re wanting a luxury stay.. it was not filthy but it was definitely not clean, the curtains were about as useful as cellophane which was hard work for the post hens night sleep in we were hoping for. Also the towel rack in the bathroom broke simply from me trying to open the door but I'm betting someone from a previous booking had broken it and popped it back on like they hadn’t bent a hooker over after a steamy shower sesh and slipped on the innocent towel rack….ANYWAY overall I’d book again for fun times, just keep your expectations where they belong.
