Our hosts at Garden City went above and beyond to provide us with early access to our unit so that we could prepare for a family funeral nearby. They were friendly and welcoming and made us feel at home.

6/10 Good

Beds were very uncomfortable, the house keeping was a bit inconsistent some days freash towels, some beds were made I guess it depended who was one, also parking was confusing most places have designated car parks a couple times we came back and there was no where to park, overall was pretty average.
Claire, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Unit could do with a refresh but was suitable for our 2 night stay. Staff were lovely. Would be nice to get a top up of Milk on 2nd day. Only 4 chairs for dining table so with a family of 5 someone had to sit elsewhere to eat.
