Sandra had requested by email that we didn't arrive till after 4pm which we endeavoured to comply with but as the roads were better that I expected coming up from Strahan we actually arrived about 3.50pm and as there was nothing to occupy us in the region we had to wait until she had prepared the rooms. This was sometime after 4.00. By this time we were feeling travel weary and were glad to be able to have a rest.

We unfortunately found that the apartment, particularly near the bathroom had a mouldy smell which could be tolerated with open windows in the day but was most unpleasant at night when because of the cold it was necessary to have less ventilation. This I found was not conducive to sleep.

The Kitchen was pleasant with morning sun. Sandra was obliging in providing a casserole dish for use in the microwave when requested. The Bathroom was adequate except that toilet flushing was often ineffective. The shower had its peculiarities. One of the lounge chairs was comfortable the other was not. There was no DVD player.

The bedroom was OK but the curtains fell down when opened.

My wife found the wooden steps that led up to the apartment to be too rickety for her feeling of security as the bolts securing the steps were loose and many steps moved as you walked on them.

The overall level of finish to the rooms was rather unfinished and the bright colour scheme did not appeal.
