Easy to find, room was quite small and lacked the basics, no reception area, picked up key in an envelope. No bench top and no plates to use to make toast. The small window by the door let a lot of light in, so the room wasn’t as dark as it should have been. Shower pressure was good.

Bathroom heating was nice after getting out of the shower. Check in was easy and well explained in email. Would have been nice to have outdoor lights as quite dark when came back from an evening outing and left at 06:00 am next day Would have been nice to have someone to ask or have breakfast times posted

Clean, quiet, convenient location for touring GOR. Nothing fancy. Easy self check in and out. Only provided 1 hand towel and 1 wash cloth. Would be nice to have 2 of each. Seems to be a thing in Australia.
