Our one bedroom unit on the ground floor was very spacious and comfortable and surprisingly quiet being right on a main road. Lots of off road parking.

Superb well priced merivale accomodation
Superb host. Amazing clean fresh renovation. Very pleased. One thing that must be considered is there is no air conditioner. For me a must for any accomodation.
