The property was very clean & tidy inside in a very quiet location. The courtyard outside needed some TLC to tidy up the garden. It was a short walk to Middleton Beach & also to the Golf Club. However, you needed to drive to local shops. We had a 5 night stay in the property & thoroughly enjoyed our time in Albany.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The room we had was 10x better than the advertised pictures. Awesome facilities, nice bed, nice location and overall it was very comfortable for short or long term stay. The only negative was the place could have been much cleaner, there was much dust and spiders and the ground seemed as if not cleaned. But apart from that it is an excellent place and we are very grateful and we would go back!

The apartment complex was in a residential area but very close to the beach. It was quiet and well maintained. Only problem was on our last day we didn’t have any hot water for showers. I rang the property manager to inform them and was told that it would take about an hour for someone to get there. We were leaving, so we didn’t want to wait until then.

Holly

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
For the price, this property was very disappointing. The apartment itself feels very poorly outfitted; the shower head and bath tap both leak, there are holes and paint spots on the walls, missing plates, and NO WIFI. The photos in the listing are misleading - our room did not have access to the full kitchen as that only comes with the suite. There were also huge spiders and webs behind the bedside table. Overall, pretty average and definitely not worth the price.
