It was a wonderful destination for a couples night away in the heart of Bendigo.
Pros:

The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating for our needs. This was especially helpful as we came during a major event and all the streets were closed. They personally came out and oversaw our escourting onto the premises.

Cons:

The toliet was a little cramped in its location between the wall and the spa. There are only stairs covering this building, but as it is one of the oldest buildings in Bendigo it is not surprising.
