Riverview II 3

Awesome location for sporting event and post event holiday.

More than two loo rolls!😆

Very close to everything just a short walk

Very quite off a night time

Nothing

The location was excellent and it was great to have closed parking as well as on street parking.

The property itself was extremely dated. In general the furnishings and kitchen utensils are in desperate need of an update, particularly the single beds which were so uncomfortable we actually checked a day early. Bizarrely small beds (smaller than a single) on wheels, directly on tile so they slid around. Unattached headboards which rattled at the slightest move and ancient mattresses which sunk in as soon as you touched them. We walked into the apartment which smelled of dogs and mould (supposedly a pet free accommodation - in next door unit were two yappy dogs but it could be a private residence). On taking our shoes off at the door on entry our feet were covered in dust, not sure when last guests stayed but it felt unopened for some time. A quick mop and wipe would have been good. There was also some congealed fat/cheese in the sink drain, as well as several of the pans, which we actually cleaned ourselves with sponges we bought new as the sponge provided was filthy. The unit itself was very dark and dingy, not at all welcoming particularly in such a bright location. The two dense wooden doors shutting out all light from the balcony is a strange design which require you to put the lights on any time of day. Unfortunately, the lights are so bad they actually give you a headache (way too low light, fixtures full of dead insects). Another comment would be on the bathroom items - tiny hotel sample provided, one shampoo, conditioner and shower gel for 3 people for a 4 night stay. In hotels these are provided per person and changed every night as they are essentially single or at best twice use. Either provide something appropriate for the duration and number of guests, or don't bother. Updating furnishings (IKEA single beds would do!!) and creating a more welcoming space could be done relatively cheaply and would vastly improve this holiday rental.
