Tara View Apartments

We stayed in apartment 3 for three nights and were very disappointed with the apartment, which was not cheap. When we arrived, the toilet had been used, the floors were not completely cleaned, the light over the bathroom sink did not work, there was only one rubbish bin (dirty) with no lid, no recycling possibilities, which had been described, there were very few kitchen utensils (no paring or carving knife, no salad bowl), the dish rack was dirty, there were no towel racks, no night tables, no reading lights, the mattress was old and sagged in the middle and to top it all off a deafening fire alarm went off for no reason inside the apartment at midnight one night when we were sleeping. What happened and who turned it off after 15 minutes we never learned. The whole complex is run down and we only saw a person in the reception area once in 3 days. It’s out in the middle of nowhere but with no bucolic charm.

I'd only stay here again at a push. Reasonably priced but not good. Location not great, layout of apartment not great. We stayed in apartment 3, if you get this apartment on check in, hand back the keys. There are a number of apartments in this complex, all look like they have a different layout. I'd bet they use the best apartment photos for the website because our apartment did not look like the promo photos. Scheduled Electricity outage the morning we were leaving, no apology or prior notice from staff. Had to shower in the dark and unable to cook breakfast. We were happy to be leaving. Generator was set up and we were told power would be run from this but of course it was only used to run power to the onsite play centre otherwise they would have had to cancel kids parties and lose revenue, we and other guests had already paid for our stay so we didnt matter.

Lovely Lovely little apartment, great views, nice quiet location - would book again!
