The property was fantastic.
The way that the bond is taken and returned is not really fair. It has to be paid two weeks in advance and not returned until 14 days after you leave. They hold your money for over a month!!!

My name is Einat ( and not Inat as the staff decided to spellMy name).The unit is really nice. Have everything in it. Location perfect!However, we met a big cockroach first thing in the morning and bunch of ants ion one of the kitchen corners. It needs good pest control.Also, prior to arriving we were advised by that property management to notify them of ANI ISSUE that arises WHILE we are there, rather than after we leave. But, unfortunately, there was no one to talk to during our weekend Holliday Whalen we actually tried to contact someone.When I mentioned that upon leaving I was told that they meant they will attend only emergencies.Lack of accurate information and lack of attention to details ( hence: misspelling of name ).

Our trip was fabulous. The accommodation was very clean and had all the amenities you could need or want. The location could not have been anymore central and meant that we explored Bright easily with our 4 and 6 year olds. Highly recommend.

Very clean house with lovely furnishings and everything g you could need to make your stay pleasant and easy. Garage with a roller door came in very handy to securely store our treasured xy Ute for the rod run in town. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

The location was perfect as it was so close to the shops but in a quiet street. The place was clean and the beds were comfortable with a variety of pillows to choose from. The unit was small and as we were 2 couples staying together, we felt as though we couldn't have our own space. There was also no central heating so you had to wait for the heaters to warm the place up. Still the rest of the facilities were fine and we enjoyed our stay.

Nice and close to everything just too much clutter
10.0 / 10.0
The house was well presented and equipped with everything except a clothes dryer. A hand towel and hand wash in the laundry would be useful when using the second toilet. Also the dishwasher tablets supplied had to be broken to fit in and did not dissolve properly.
The best feature is the closeness to shops and restaurants.
10.0 / 10.0
Would highly recommend staying at this property. Besides being a great location, walking distance to shops, restaurants etc, this property had everything you could ever need whilst away from home!! From condiments to plenty of toilet paper, a cupboard full of cleaning products and even thermos flasks!!
Well appointed, very clean, small and cozy, perfect for 2 couples. Highly recommend staying here and we will definitely be back!!

We stayed 3 nights at the property. there were 2 portable heater in each room but both were out of order. we had to wear our warm clothes and stay in cold. when emailed to property Manager, they reply the heater were working. did not want to argue on this but what they said did not deliver. We had to clean the freeze to use it as it was not cleaned. I will not recommend this property to a family stay.ABSOLUTELY A BIG NO! i am sure people will stay there when there is no other option?

Stayed here for a weekend with our family and it couldn't have been easier! The house was really clean, had everything you'd need and was in a great location. We arrived late at night and the house lights were on as well as the heater - made a big difference!

Mala was so perfect in many ways , 50 meters to centre of town, rail trail at the front door spotlessly clean, cyclists heaven with the roller door garage for all your safe bike storage, very comfortable for 4 adults. Cosy and warm heating in all rooms. Would be great in winter. Will definitely return to Mala
