Comfortable and suitable for BIG MEN
Pros:

3 big blokes were road tripping from Wagga to Leeton to Canberra and Goulburn. Throughout our trip this was our best accommodation. Highly Recommended! Fantastic location close to restaurants and bars. Thank you

Pros:

Clean and close to the city. Secure apartments with underground parking.

Cons:

Tv didn't connect to internet so stuck with free channels. Booked a twin room but got a double. Internet said microwave in room but didn't have one. Loud noise coming from some vent in the bathroom all night.
