The place was in a fantastic location to explore the north shore. Everything was as expected from the pictures and the description. We really enjoyed being able to cook our own meals and make coffee in the morning, and the balcony is so fantastic. Communication with host was always excellent.
As other reviews have mentioned you do hear the neighbours quite a lot, but the complex has a quiet policy at night and it was very respected, so we didn't find any issues.
No air conditioning which was ok for us as it wasn't too hot, so the fans were enough. But some people may find it hard if it's a hotter season.
All in all great value for the cost. I would recommend it.
