This property was conveniently located, clean & the beds were very comfortable. We booked a room upstairs as we wanted the spa bath. The spa bath was huge but unfortunately we could not get the jets to work. We would suggest a set of instructions.

spa bath facilities promoted in advertisement. Bath seems as though it was falling apart. Needed a ladder to get into.
Basin cracked and grout missing from tiles on floor.

Quiet and well appointed rooms. Awesome bathroom. Bed linen and lounge room furniture was very nice. But bed was a little soft for me - but it was a good quality bed.
My only peeve was that the parking spaces were very narrow. This made parking difficult. But otherwise it was a really nice place to stay.
