Like 2 years ago, the manager immediately offered to carry our suitcases up to our room. We are in our eighties and would have had serious problems with that. He did the same for carrying them down when we left! GREAT SERVICE 👍!!!!

Brief visit to Nelson based family
The apartment really needed air conditioning to improve quality of sleep during period of warmer weather. The location was also noisy due to adjacent compressor operating at random times and road noise.
