Quality Resort Parkhurst
The room was very clean. Batbroom, spotless!! Tue room was easy to navigate to and the pool was great. Price was competitive against other properties but was way nicer! Slightly out of town in parkhurst, but we liked that about it

The Cosmopolitan Motel and Serviced Apartments
The door was very hard to shut. It had to be slammed shut. The aircon in the common are and 1 of the bedrooms didn't work. The place was otherwise ok.
