Mangrove Creek Vacation Packages

Positives: *Contactless property; the owner Mark was very nice & respectfully answered my questions via text regarding parking. *Check-in process very well-organised w/ clear instructions for key access/code etc. *Electric block-out blind helped w/ privacy, noise & light in the mornings. *Bathroom sink & vanity: Somewhat clean w/ good bench space. Negatives: *Really unfortunate to report the negative aspects of this property as Mark was so polite & helpful (as per above). *Generally, a very uncomfortable stay. *Guest house hasn’t been well-maintained; old house needs attending to. *When it rained, the front porch almost flooded w/ rain coming down the gutters. *Needs to be routinely fumigated & then surface-sprayed frequently. Had to deal w/ two cockroaches during my 2-day stay! *Only two parking spots on the property & street parking not timed ONLY during the weekend. *Smell upon arrival & during my stay was a mix of mould, air freshener & chlorine. *Room was nothing like the photo on Expedia. It hadn’t been cleaned / vacuumed at all well so I had to place my luggage on the bed & slept on one side of the mattress. *Mattress was old & so soft, felt like quick sand; it was really difficult to actually get out of it, nearly strained my wrist extensor / flexor muscles! During sleep,felt like I was sinking! *Furniture very old, second hand & dirty & not at all functional or computer-user friendly. *The fridge appeared clean on the outside but was mouldy on the inside.

Great location close to entertainment and transport links.

Loved the location. Handy to Chinatown and all the great food outlets, close to light rail, Paddy's Market and Darling Harbour attractions and nightlife.
